Answer:
36 feet long.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the longest wall in the living room is referring to the side that I have drawn over in white and red in the attached image, or if it is the leftmost wall, then that wall is 36 feet long. For every half inch, it is 6 feet, so because there are 6 'half inches' in 3, you multiply 6 feet by the 6 half inches there are, and get 36. There are simpler ways to solve it but I can't take a picture of my work, so I hope this helps. Good luck.
1) B=Bikers H=Hikers
H=B+178 (178 MORE HIKERS THAN BIKERS)
B+H=676 (TOTAL EQUATION)
COMBINE EQUATIONS (Plug in H from first equation into second one)
B + B +178 = 676
SOLVE FOR B
2B=498
B=249 Total Bikers
Now for Hikers go back to the first equation we made
H= B+178.... Plug in B =249 and get
H=427
2) Children =C AND Adult =A
C+A=764 .............. C=764-A
2C+5A=2992
COMBINE EQUATIONS
2(764-A)+5A=2992
You can solve for A.
A=488
Now c GO BACK TO FIRST EQAUTION
C+A=764 and solve for C.
C=276
496.3 would be 497 and 98 would be 100
