Respuesta :

Answer:

width = 1 units

Length= 4 2/3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first, we have to multiply the original width of the pencil by the percent decrease in decimal form (divided by 100).

1.5 x ([66 2/3] /100) =1.5 ([2/3]/100) =1 unit

Same process for the length:

7 x ([66 2/3] /100) =7 ([2/3]/100)= 4 2/3 unit
