Width of the envelope = 5.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle be  x

Then the length of the rectangle will be

Also the length of the plastic band to cover the  front and back of the envolpe =  

To cover one side th band required is

=>

=>

=>

=>

=>39.4

We know that the perimeter of the rectangle is

=> 2( L + B) =

=> 2( ) = 19.7

=> 2(

=>  

=>

=>  

Now length of the envelope =

=>  

=>  

=> 14

x + 4/7
