The length of a rectangular plot is 400 meters, and its width is 140 meters less than the length. Find the area of the plot.

1) What is the width of the site? If it is known that the width is less than the length by 140 meters, then 140 meters must be subtracted from the length.

400 – 140 = 260 (m)

2) What is the area of the site. If the site has the shape of a rectangle with known side lengths, then in order to find its area, the length must be multiplied by the width.

400 * 260 = 104000 (m ^ 2)

Answer. 104,000 m ^ 2.
