The width of the rectabgle is 9 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given in the question that the length is 8/3 times of width.

Let's assume that the width is x feet.

So length = (8/3)*x

Given that the length of rectangle is 24feet.

Plugging the values

24 = (8/3)*x

24 = 8x/3

Cross multiplying

24*3 = 8x

72/8 = x

9 = x

So width = 9 feet.
