Hello there! Given the area and length of the rectangular garden, we can follow the formula to solve:
Width = Area divided by Length
53 5/6 divided by 9 1/2 is our expression.
We can start by converting to an improper fraction:
323/6 divided by 19/2 = ?
323 divided by 19 = 17
6 divided by 2 = 3
17/3 is the width, but we are not done. We still have to convert back into a mixed number!
17/3 as a mixed number would be 5 2/3.
Your final answer: The width of the rectangular garden is 5 2/3 feet. Hope this helps!
