width, in miles, of the park?

A 4/9
B 5/6
C1 1/54
D 1 1/5

Answer 1

Explanation:

Let's use the formula for the area of a rectangle: Area = Length x Width.

Given that the area of the park is 25/54 square miles and the length is 5/9 miles, we can solve for the width as follows:

Area = Length x Width

25/54 = 5/9 x Width

25/54 ÷ 5/9 = Width

(25/54) x (9/5) = Width

(5/6) x (5/6) = Width

25/36 = Width

Therefore, the width of the park is 25/36 miles, which can be simplified to 5/6 miles.

So the answer is (B) 5/6.
