To find the missing length when the area of a rectangle is given, you can use the formula for the area of a rectangle:

\[
\text{Area} = \text{length} \times \text{width}
\]

You mentioned that the area is \(54 \, \text{ft}^2\) and the length is \(9 \, \text{ft}\). Let’s denote the width as \(w\).

Using the area formula, we can set up the equation:

\[
54 = 9 \times w
\]

To find \(w\), divide both sides by \(9\):

\[
w = \frac{54}{9} = 6 \, \text{ft}
\]

So, the missing width is \(6 \, \text{ft}\).
