Here is the solution of the given problem above. Given: Area = 26 square feet Length = 5 1/2 or 5.5 feet ? = width Formula: Area = L x W So let's substitute the given values: 26 ft2 = 5.5ft (W) w= 4.73ft Now we divide both sides with 5.5ft and we get 4.73. So the width is 4.73 feet. To check, 5.5 x 4.73 is equal to 26.02. The final answer would be, width is 4.73 feet. Hope this solution helps!
