Answer:

<u>Length</u> - 54 yds

<u>Width</u> - 18 yds

Step-by-step explanation:

72 yds = perimeter

3x + x =72

4x = 72

Since 4x equals 72, you would divide 72 by 4 to find out how much x equals.

72/4 = 18 yds

18 yds = width

Since the length is three times as long as the width, you would multiply 18 by 3.

18 x 3 = 54

54 yds = length

Korvikt [17]
The change from 3/4 to 4/10 is found by obtaining and applying the LCD:

15/20 to 8/20 is a negative change, and the amount of the change was -7/20.

We compare this result to the original value, 15/20, to obtain the percentage change in the fraction:

   -7/20
----------- = -7/15 = -0.467  =>  -46.7%
