3 answers

To find the width of the park, we need to divide the area of the park by its length.

Area = 1.36 × 10^8 ft^2
Length = 1.6 × 10^4 ft

Width = Area / Length
Width = (1.36 × 10^8 ft^2) / (1.6 × 10^4 ft)

To divide numbers in scientific notation, we subtract the exponents:

Width = 1.36 × 10^(8-4) ft
Width = 1.36 × 10^4 ft

Therefore, the width of the park is 1.36 × 10^4 ft.
