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

Verified 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 \(\boldsymbol{\frac{24}{35}}\) mile.

Area of a rectangle

Area of a rectangle \(=\) Length \(\times\) Width

Area of a rectangular park \(=\frac{3}{5}\) square mile

Length of a rectangular park \(=\frac{7}{8}\) mile

\(\frac{3}{5}=\frac{7}{8}\times\) Width of a rectangular park

So,

Width of a rectangular park \(=\frac{3}{5}\times \frac{8}{7}\)

                                             \(=\boldsymbol{\frac{24}{35}}\)
