To find the height of the poster, we can divide the area of the poster by its width.
22 square feet / 3 2/3 feet = 22 square feet / (11/3) feet.
To divide by a fraction, we can multiply by its reciprocal.
22 square feet * (3/11 feet) = 22/11 square feet = 2 square feet.
The height of the poster is 2 feet.
