Answer:

10.5, [tex]10\frac{1}{2}[/tex], or [tex]\frac{21}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, you can use a variable (x) to represent the width.

The equation for area is A=L×W

So the Area is 820 and the length is 78.

820= 78w

Isolate the variable to solve.

w=10.5128....

If you round, it will be 10.5

10.5 as a fraction is [tex]10\frac{1}{2}[/tex] or [tex]\frac{21}{2}[/tex]
