Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's make a simple equation! It's much, much simpler than you think. Let's look closely.
Area = Base x Height
We already know the area, so we can substitute this already.
72 = Base x Height
We also know the height, 6.
72 = Base x 6
We can now replace "base" as x to make it simpler to solve the equation we made!
6x = 72
x = 12
The base of the parallelogram is 12 inches.
