Answer:

0.5 ft

Explanation:

The applicable volume formula is ...

V = length · width · height

Filling in the given numbers, we can solve for the width.

0.375 ft^3 = (1.5 ft) · width · (0.5 ft)

Dividing by the coefficient of width, we have ...

0.375 ft^3/(0.75 ft^2) = width = 0.5 ft

The width of Deena's tool box is 0.5 ft.
