The school in town is building a track around its football stadium. The principal must decide whether to build a track with 6 lanes or 7 lanes. A 6-lane track will be 28.68 feet wide, and a 7-lane track will be 28.98 feet wide. If all lanes are of equal width in each track, how much wider will the lanes be in a 6-lane track than in a 7-lane track?

the 6 lane track will be 0.64 feet wider than the 7 lane track
