The rectangle is 42 centimeters wide and 5/21 of the width of the rectangle. Find the area of the rectangle.

To complete this task, we must calculate what the length of the rectangle is. To do this, we must find how many centimeters are 5/21 of 42 centimeters. To do this, we multiply the part by the number.

5/21 * 42 = 5 * 42/21 = 210/21 = 10 cm.

Knowing that the width is 42 cm, and the length is 10 cm, we calculate what the area of the given rectangle is equal to.

S = 42 * 10 = 420 cm².

Answer: 420 cm².
