You just bought a very comfortable rectangular towel, but after a few washes, it shrunk! Now your towel has decreased by a certain area.
Write a word problem that will force the reader to find the original dimensions of the towel. Before you post the comment, make sure the problem actually makes sense!
(Hint: Start by making up the original dimensions of the towel first.)
