Answer 1

`\bf \underline{ \underline{Given}}`

• A rectangular deck that has an area of 165 square feet.

• Length of deck = 15 feet

`\bf \underline{ \underline{To \: find \: out}}`

Find the width of deck.

`\bf \underline{ \underline{Solution}}`

As we know that,

`\sf \: Area \: of \: rectangle = length * width`

`\sf \implies \: 165 = 15 * width`

`\sf \implies \: width = \cancel(165)/(15)`

`\sf\implies \: width = 11 \: feet`

Hence,the width of rectangular deck is 11 feet .
