To find the width of the rectangular garden, we can use the formula for the area of a rectangle:

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

In this case, the area \( A \) is 91 square feet, and the length is 13 feet. We can denote the width by \( w \).

The equation to model the situation would be:

\[ 91 = 13w \]

Thus, the correct option from your choices is **C: 91 = 13w**.

To find the width, you could then solve this equation for \( w \):

\[ w = \frac{91}{13} \]

So the width of the garden can be calculated from this equation.
