Area = length x width

Fill in the given information

20 = 2 x width

Solve for width by dividing both sides by 2

Width =20/2

Width = 10 feet

Answer:

It is 10 feet wide

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is:

A = Length x width

So if we have the area, finding the width means diving the area by the given length.

In this case, the area of the rectangle is 20 square feet and the length is 2 feet:

20/2 = 10

Therefore the missing width is 10 feet
