Question

a park is rectangular with a length of 2/3 miles in the area of the park is 3/9 square miles what is it what is the width ​

Answer 1

The width w of the rectangular park = 1/2

Explanation:

Given

The length of the rectangular park l = 2/3 miles

The area of the park A = 3/9 square miles

To determine

The width of the rectangular park w = ?

Using the formula of the Area of the rectangle

`A\:=\:wl`

`w\:=\:(A)/(l)`

`=((3)/(9))/((2)/(3))`

`=(3\cdot \:3)/(9\cdot \:2)` ∵ Fraction rule:
`((a)/(b))/((c)/(d))=(a\cdot \:d)/(b\cdot \:c)`

`=(9)/(18)`

`=(1)/(2)`

Therefore, the width w of the rectangular park = 1/2
