Answer:
[tex]\frac{8}{3} yards[/tex] i.e. [tex]2\frac{2}{3} yards[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the area of the rectangle is:
[tex]9\frac{1}{3} =\frac{28}{3}[/tex] square yards
Length of rectangle is [tex]3\frac{1}{2} =\frac{7}{2}[/tex] yards
Now we are supposed to calculate the width of the rectangle .
First consider the formula of the area of rectangle i.e.
Area = Length*Width
Now put the given values
⇒[tex]\frac{28}{3}=\frac{7}{2} * Width[/tex]
⇒[tex]\frac{28}{3}*\frac{2}{7}= Width[/tex]
⇒[tex]\frac{8}{3} = Width[/tex]
Thus The width of the rectangle is
[tex]\frac{8}{3} yards[/tex] i.e. [tex]2\frac{2}{3} yards[/tex]
