Greetings!

Answer:

The width is 18cm

Step-by-step explanation:

If the equation of the area of a rectangle is:

Area = length * width

Then you substitute in the values you know:

144 = 8 * width

To find the width you need to rearrange the formula to make the width the subject. Do this by dividing the area by the length:

Width = 144 / 8

Width = 18

So the width is 18cm


Hope this helps!
