The length of the rectangle is times its width. Find the area of a rectangle if its width is 12cm less than its length.

It is known that the length of a rectangle is 2 times its width. It is also known that the width of the rectangle is 12 cm less than the length. Therefore, if 12 is multiplied by 2, we get 24. So, the width of the rectangle is 12 cm and the length is 24 cm.

Accordingly, the area of the rectangle is:

length times width = 12 * 24 = 288 cm.
