The length of the rectangle is 16 cm, and 4 times less. Find the side length of a square whose area is equal to the area of the rectangle.

1) Let’s find out what width a given rectangle has, if it is known that it is 4 times less than its length, and the length of the rectangle is 16 cm.

16/4 = 4 cm.

2) Let’s find out what area a rectangle with sides of 4 cm and 16 cm has.

4 * 16 = 64 cm²

3) Find out what is the length of the side of the square, if it is known that its area is equal to the area of the rectangle and amounted to 64 cm².

64/4 = 16 cm.

Answer: The side of the 64 cm² square was 16 cm long.
