the area of a rectangular park is 3/5 square mile. the length of the park is 7/8 mile. what is the width of the park

show your work

remember that Area=Length +Width



Answer :

A = L * W

3/5 = 7/8 * W

divide both sides by 7/8

W = 24/35 of 0.6857

Width of a rectangular park is equal to [tex]\boldsymbol{\frac{24}{35}}[/tex] mile.

Area of a rectangle

Area of a rectangle [tex]=[/tex] Length [tex]\times[/tex] Width

Area of a rectangular park [tex]=\frac{3}{5}[/tex] square mile

Length of a rectangular park [tex]=\frac{7}{8}[/tex] mile

[tex]\frac{3}{5}=\frac{7}{8}\times[/tex] Width of a rectangular park

So,

Width of a rectangular park [tex]=\frac{3}{5}\times \frac{8}{7}[/tex]

                                             [tex]=\boldsymbol{\frac{24}{35}}[/tex]
