Answer: [tex]\frac{5}{9}\ m[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Area of the rectangular piece of paper is [tex]A=\frac{1}{3}\ m^2[/tex]

Length of the paper is [tex]l=\frac{3}{5}\ m[/tex]

Suppose width of the paper is [tex]w[/tex]

Area is the multiplication of length and width

[tex]\therefore A=lw\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{3}{5}\times w\\\\\Rightarrow w=\dfrac{5}{9}\ m[/tex]

Thus, the width of the paper is [tex]\frac{5}{9}\ m[/tex]
