Answer:

10ftx10ft, 20ftx5ft, 25ftx4ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a rectangle is:

[tex]length * width[/tex]

In this question, we basically have to find lengths and widths that equal 100:

[tex]length * width = 100[/tex]

Thinking about this we get lots of combinations:

Combo 1 - 1ftx100ft = 100ft^2

Combo 2 - 2ftx50ft = 100ft^2

Combo 3 - 4ftx25ft = 100ft^2

Combo 4 - 5ftx20ft = 100ft^2

Combo 5 - 10ftx10ft = 100ft^2

Here are 5 combos of lengths and widths I came up with that result in 100 square feet :3(I chose combo 3, 4, and 5, but 1 and 2 work too!)

Hope this helps! Please give your brain a break and time to cool down! :3
