Answer:


(1)/(3) feet

Explanation:

The area of a rectangle is represented by the formula
A = l ×
w, in which
A is the area,
l is the length, and
w is width.

Let's put in what we already know into the formula. We know that the area is
(5)/(18), so let's substitute that for
A. We know that the length is
(5)/(6), so let's substitute that for
l. This gives an equation that looks like this:


(5)/(18) = (5)/(6) ×
w

To find the width, all we need to do know is isolate
w:


w = (5)/(18) ×
(6)/(5)


w = (30)/(90)


w = (1)/(3)

Thus, the width is
(1)/(3).
