Answer:

2ft

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Area of the rectangle =
1(2)/(3)ft²

Width of the rectangle =
(5)/(6)ft

Unknown:

Length of the rectangle = ?

Solution:

The area of a rectangle is given as:

Area of rectangle = length x breadth

Now insert the parameters and solve for length


(5)/(3) = L x
(5)/(6)

L =
(5)/(3) x
(6)/(5) = 2ft
