I know I’m late, but here you go.

A=wl (area equals width times length)
A=192 sq feet
L=15 feet
W=area divided by length
Area divided by length=12.8 feet
Width:13 feet (rounded to the nearest foot)

This is quite simple
We know to find area it’s length * width so to find the width it’s area/length

So it’s 192/15
=12.8 feet

13 to the nearest foot
