L= length= 1 1/2 yards
A= area= 3 1/2 yards^2
w= width
Area= length * width
plug in numbers you know
3 1/2= (1 1/2)(w)
convert to improper fractions
(3*2+1)/2= ((1*2+1)/2)(w)
7/2= 3/2w
divide both sides by 3/2
7/2 ÷ 3/2= w
to divide fractions, multiply by the reciprocal/inverse of 3/2
7/2 * 2/3= w
(7*2)/(2*3)= w
14/6= w
reduce by 2
7/3= width as improper fraction
OR
2 1/3= width as mixed fraction
ANSWER: The width should be 2 1/3 yards wide (or 7/3 yards wide).
Hope this helps! :)

Answer:
20 chairs
Step-by-step explanation:
After 136 people are seated in the bleacher, there can be 514 people seated in chairs. We know that 514 = 25×20 +14, so there can be 20 rows of 25 chairs. We require an equal number of chairs in each row, so there cannot be some rows with 21 chairs, nor can there be a 26th row with 14 chairs.
There can be 20 chairs in each row.
