Answer:

16 feet in length.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this situation, you are given the area and the width of the full carpet, furthermore, you must reverse the formula for area to find the length, as so:

<u>Area Formula</u>: A=<em> l • w</em>

<u>Given</u>: 136= <em>l</em> • 8.5

<em>l</em> = 136 ÷ 8.5

<em>l</em> = 16 feet

I hope this was helpful!
