Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the land A - Length * Width

Given

A = 1 3/4 mi²

Length L = 2 1/3 miles

Required

Width of the property

Substitute into the formula;

A = LW

W = A/L

W = 1 3/4/(2 1/3)

W = 7/4 ÷ 7/3

W = 7/4 × 3/7

W = 3/4 miles

Hence the width of the property is 3/4 miles
