Answer:

8 1/2 feet

Explanation:

Here is the complete question

A window shaped like a parallelogram has an area of 73 2/3 square feet. The height of the window is 8 2/3 feet. How long is the base of the window?

A parallelogram is quadrilateral that has two pairs of parallel sides. The opposite sides equal in length

Area = base x height

73 2/3 = 8 2/3 x base

divide 73 2/3 by 8 2/3

221/3 x 3/26 = 8 1/2 feet
