Answer:

Width = 12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Area of a rectangle is 168 square feet.

The ratio of the width to the length is  6:7.

Let the length is 7x and width is 6x.

According to question,

Area = 168 sq feet

l×b=168 sq feet

7x × 6x = 168

42x² = 168

x² = 4

x = 2

Length = 7x = 7(2) = 14 feet

Breadth = 6x = 6(2) = 12 feet

So, the width of the rectangle us 12 feet.
