Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Cross multiply!
1. 1 / 6 * 11 / 12
2. 1*12 = 11*6
3. 12 = 66
4. 66/12
Decimal form: 5.5
Fraction form: 5 1/2
Improper Fraction: 11/2
We see that the area is 159 3/8 and the length is 18 3/4.
Because the area is the length*width, to find the width, we must divide the area by the length.
Think of it this way:
Divide l on both sides:
And w is what we're looking for.
So, divide 159 3/8 by 18 3/4.
You should get that the width is 8.5 feet :)
