Question

The area of a rectangular city park is 25/54 square miles. The length of the park is 5/9 miles what is the width in the miles of the park

Answer 1

Note that
`A=lw`, where
`A` is the area,
`l` is the length, and
`w` is the width. Substituting our values in, we have:


`(5w)/(9) = (25)/(54)`

Multiplying by
`(9)/(5)` gives:


`w=(5)/(6)`

So the width is
`(5)/(6)` miles.
