Answer: The width of the deck is 22.8 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Area of the deck = 752.4 square feet

Length of deck = 33 feet

Let width of deck be 'x'.

Since Deck is in the shape of rectangle.

As we know the formula for "Area of rectangle ":

$Area=Length\times width\\\\752.4=33\times x\\\\\dfrac{752.4}{33}=x\\\\22.8=x$

Hence, the width of the deck is 22.8 feet.
