The area of a rectangle is 72^9^6 square yards. The length of the rectangle is 8^3^4 yards. What is the width of the rectangle in yards? Show how you found the variable expression to represent the width. (Hint: set this up as a division problem to find the missing measurement.)

72^9^6 ÷ 8^3^4

72^3^12 ÷ 8^3^4

(9×8)^3^12 ÷ 8^3^4

9^3^12 × (8^3^12 ÷ 8^3^4)

9^3^12 × (8^3^(12-4))

9^3^12 × 8^3^8 feet

in the math equation 8 x 7 = 56, the 8 and the 7 are both factors of 56, since in this lesson we will use square tiles to figure out the factors of a whole find as many different arrays as you can, but follow one important rule: all the rows must have the i can make two rows of nine, so 2 and 9 are both factors of 18.
