Respuesta :

Answer:

The length of the runway =  12090 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula involving the area of a rectangle is

[tex]A=wl[/tex]

here

  • 'w' is the width
  • 'l' is the length

Given

Area A = 1,934,400 square feet

Width w = 160 w

Length l = ?

Using the formula

[tex]A=wl[/tex]

substituting the values

1,934,400 = 160 × l

l = 1,934,400 / 160

l = 12090 feet

Therefore, the length of the runway =  12090 feet
