A rectangle’s length is three times its width, w Its area is 243 square units. Which equation can be used to find the width of the rectangle?

The area of a rectangle is length times width. Since the length is 3w and the width is w, its area is (3w)(w) = 3w². Setting this equal to the given area, 243, gives 3w² = 243, which is choice C.
