Answer:

7/6

Explanation:

since the formula of area is length times width,you have to divide the area by the length to find the width

area=length×width

the width will be

width=area÷length

=7/8÷3/4

7/8×4/3

7/2×1/3

7/6

that's the width you can prove it by multiplying the length times the width to see if you will get 7/8..

I hope this helps
