A rectangle has an area of 3 3/4 square feet. the length is 1 1/2 . what is the width

The answer is 2  1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First you turn 3 3/4 into an improper fraction .To do that you multiply the denominator x the whole number + the numerator = 4x3=12 +3=15/4.

Then you turn 1 1/2 into an improper fraction .To do that you multiply the denominator x the whole number + the numerator =2x1+1=3/2

15/4 divided by 3/2 but get your answer you have to reverse 3/2 into 2/3 and you multiply instead of dividing .

15/4 x 2/3 =15 x2 = 30 , 4x3=12  so your answer will be 30/12 but it can be simplified because they are both multiple of 6 . So , 30 divided by 6 = 5 and 12 divided by 6 = 2 so then you answer is 5/2 but it is an improper fraction so you divide 5 by 2 and you get 2 and a remainder of 1/2=2 1/2

the answer is c
