Before we try to solve anything, let's convert our fractions into decimals, this so if we use a calculator (or writing on paper), it will be much easier to put it.
131 1/4 = 131.25 (divide 100 by the denominator to know each 1/x value).
12 1/2 = 12.50
The formula for the area of a rectangle is L x W, or Length x Width.
Since we are looking for our width, w, we need to divide by the length.
131.25 / 12.5 = 10.5.
Our width is 10 1/2 ft.
I hope this helps!

What is 5 3/4 times 2/6? I am doing math homework and need help
Jobisdone [24]
53/4•2/6=1 11/12
Because you must turn 5 3/4 into an improper fraction. So 23/4•2/6. Next you are able to cross reduce because 2 goes into 2 and four so now you have 23/2•1/6 now just multiply across. 2•6=12 and 23•1=23 so now you have 23/12 which equals
1 11/12
