Answer 1

Given:

A rectangular park is 5/6 miles wide and 1 5/7 miles long.

So, the length = 1 57/7 miles

And the width = 5/6 miles

The area of the rectangular park = length x width

`Area=1(5)/(7)*(5)/(6)=(12)/(7)*(5)/(6)=(10)/(7)=1(3)/(7)\text{ }miles^2`

So, the answer will be Area = 1 3/7 square miles
