The width of the coop is 3 yards
Explanations:Let the perimeter of the coop be represented as P
P = 20 yards
Let the length of the coop be L
L = 7 yards
Let the Width of the coop be W
The shape of a chicken coop is rectangular
The perimeter of a rectangular object is calculated using the formula:
P = 2 (L + W)
Substituting the values of P and L into the equation above:
20 = 2 (7 + W)
20 / 2 = 7 + W
10 = 7 + W
W = 10 - 7
W = 3
The width of the coop is 3 yards
