The width in feet of the given solid is 1.136

Density is defined as the ratio of the mass per unit volume

Density = Mass/Volume

Given

Weight = 360 pounds

Density = 3 pounds per cubic foot

Get the mass;

Since W = mg

m = W/g

m = 360/2.2

m =163.64  lbm/kg

Get the volume

From the formula;

Volume = Mass/Density

Volume = 163.64 /3

Volume = 54.55 ft³

Next is to get the width

Volume of the triangular prism = Base Area * Width

Base Area = 48ft²

54.55 = 48w

w = 54.55/48

w = 1.136

Hence the width of the solid in feet is 1.136ft
