A rectangular piece of land has an area of 3/4 square mile. The land is 21/2 mile. What is its width

Answer:The width of the rectangle is  [tex]\frac{1}{14}[/tex] miles Step-by-step explanation:Given as for rectangleThe area of rectangle = A = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] mile²The Length of rectangle = L = [tex]\frac{21}{2}[/tex] mileLet The width of rectangle = W milesNow, From area of rectangleI.e Area of Rectangle = Length × WidthOr , A = [tex]\frac{21}{2}[/tex] mile  × W mileOr, [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] mile² = [tex]\frac{21}{2}[/tex] mile  × W mileor, W = [tex]\frac{\frac{3}{4}}{\frac{21}{2}}[/tex] mileor, W = [tex]\frac{3\times 2}{4\times 21}[/tex]∴  W = [tex]\frac{1}{14}[/tex] milesHence The width of the rectangle is  [tex]\frac{1}{14}[/tex] miles  Answer
