The area of the rectangle is 1600 dm², and its width is -20 dm. How many times the width of the rectangle is less than its length.

1. The area of a rectangle is the product of its length and width. To find the length of a rectangle, you need to divide its area by its width. Let’s calculate the length of a rectangle if it is known that its area is 1600 dm ^ 2, and its width is 20 dm.

1600/20 = 80 dm.

2. Now we find out how many times the width of the given rectangle is less than its length.

80/20 = 4 times.

Answer: The width of the rectangle is 4 times less than its length.
