Since the formula for the area of a rectangle is length × width = height, we can divide the area by the length to get the width.
175.5 ÷ 13 = 13.5
And since the width is one dimensional, the answer is A.
Hope this helps!

Area = length x width
Given: length = 13 , area = 175.5
175.5 = 13 x width
width = 175.5 ÷ 13
width = 13.5 feet
The width is 13.5 ft (Answer A)
