Answer:

Width = x mile = 4 4/9 mile

J.4 4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle = length × width

Area of the rectangular plot = 8/3 square miles

Length = 3/5 mile

Width = x mile

Area of a rectangle = length × width

8/3 = 3/5 * x

8/3 = 3/5x

x = 8/3 ÷ 3/5

Multiply 8/3 by the reciprocal of 3/5

x = 8/3 × 5/3

= (8*5) / (3*3)

x = 40/9

x = 4 4/9 mile

Width = x mile = 4 4/9 mile
