garden?

Answer:

5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is A = [tex]l*w[/tex], where [tex]l[/tex] is the length and w is the width.

In this case, [tex]l=12[/tex] and A = 60. So, we plug these in and solve for w:

60 = 12 * w

w = 60/12 = 5

Thus, the width is 5 feet.

Hope this helps!
