 $\begin{array}{r} l = & x \\ w = & 27 \end{array}$

Step 1

The area of a rectangle is equal to the length times the width.

$(l e n g t h) \cdot (w i d t h)$

Step 2

Substitute the values of the length $l = x$ and width $w = 27$ into the formula for the area of a rectangle.

$x \cdot 27$

Step 3

Move $27$ to the left of $x$ .

$27 x$
