The 4th is planting a garden. The garden has an area of 55 square feet. The length of one side is 7 feet. What is the width of the garden?

Solution:
1. Given:
* Area of the garden: 55 \text{ square feet}
* Length of the garden: 7 \text{ feet}
* Formula for the area of a rectangle: \text{Area} = \text{Length} \times \text{Width}

2. Substitute the given values into the formula:
* 55 = 7 \times \text{Width}

3. Solve for the width:
* Divide both sides by 7:
* \text{Width} = \frac{55}{7}
* \text{Width} = 7.8571 \text{ feet (rounded to four decimal places)}
