Area of a rectangle
Area of a rectangle = Length × Width
Area of a rectangular park = 5 3 square mile
Length of a rectangular park = 8 7 mile
5 3 = 8 7 × Width of a rectangular park
So,
Width of a rectangular park = 5 3 × 7 8
= 35 24

A = L * W
3/5 = 7/8 * W
divide both sides by 7/8
W = 24/35 of 0.6857
The width of the rectangular park is 35 24 mile. This was determined using the area formula by setting the area equal to the product of length and width and solving for the width. By substituting the known values and calculating, we found the width to be 35 24 mile.
