Answer:
42 suitcases screened = x
Step-by-step explanation:
7/24 = x/144
7(144) = 24x
1,008 = 24x
42 = x
This is a bit of algebra.. you do not know either side so the width you will label x and the length you will label x +8. we know that if you add all 4 sides, you will have 256 feet. x + x + (x+8) + (x+8)=256 4x+16=256, Subtract 16 from both sides and you have 4x=240. divide by 4 on both sides and you get. x=60.. That makes the width = 60ft and the length = 68ft
