The variable "result" needs to be initialized with the product of "width" and "length". Therefore, option B is the correct choice as it initializes "result" to the correct value. Option A is partially correct but alone it wouldn't solve the problem. Option C is incorrect because there is no "output" variable declared. Option D is incorrect because it assigns the product of "width" and "length" to an undeclared variable "Output" instead of displaying it.
