Answer :
Hello!
The formula for finding area is l × w
If the area is 19 ½ inches and it was 3 ¼ inches wide, then the length will be 19 ½ ÷ 3 ¼ (Area ÷ Width)
[tex]19 \frac{1}{2} \div 3 \frac{1}{4} [/tex]
Change both to improper fraction
[tex]19 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{39}{2} [/tex]
[tex]3 \frac{1}{4} = \frac{13}{4} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{39}{2} \div \frac{13}{4} [/tex]
Keep 39/2
Change ÷ to ×
Flip 13/4 = 4/13
[tex] \frac{39}{2} \times \frac{4}{13} = \frac{156}{26} = 6[/tex]

length = area / width
= 19 1/2 / 3 1/4
= 39/2 / 13/4
= 39/2 * 4 / 13
= 3/1 * 2 /1
= 6 inches long Answer
= 19 1/2 / 3 1/4
= 39/2 / 13/4
= 39/2 * 4 / 13
= 3/1 * 2 /1
= 6 inches long Answer
