Answer:

63 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

  • Width = x
  • Length = x + 16

Given

  • Area = 4977 square feet

Formula for Area

  • Area = Length × Width

Solving

  • (x + 16)(x) = 4977
  • x² + 16x = 4977
  • x² + 16x - 4977 = 0
  • (x - 63)(x + 79)
  • x = 63 [because distance is always positive]

The width is : 63 feet
