To find the width of the sheet, we can use the formula for the area of a rectangle:

Area = length x width

Given that the area is 84 3/8 sq.m and the length is 20 1/3m, we can plug these values into the formula:

84 3/8 = (20 1/3) x width

Converting the mixed numbers to improper fractions:

675/8 = 61/3 x width

Now, we can solve for the width:

675/8 = 61/3 x width

Multiply both sides by 3 to get rid of the fraction:

2025/8 = 61 x width

Divide both sides by 61 to solve for the width:

Width = 2025/8 ÷ 61
Width = 33.2m

Therefore, the width of the rectangular sheet of cardboard is 33.2m.

The area of a rectangle is given by the formula:
Area = Length x Width

We are given that the area of the rectangular sheet is 84 whole 3/8 sq.m and the length is 20 whole 1/3 m. So, we can plug these values into the formula and solve for the width:

84 whole 3/8 = 20 whole 1/3 x Width

To solve for the width, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation. We can do this by dividing both sides of the equation by 20 whole 1/3:

84 whole 3/8 ÷ 20 whole 1/3 = Width

84 whole 3/8 ÷ 20 whole 1/3 = 4 whole 1/6

Therefore, the width of the rectangular sheet is 4 whole 1/6 meters.
