X=lottie's aples

give 1/4 of them to fred
origianly had 4/4, but gave 1/4 away so now has (3/4)x
eats 5 of them
(3/4)x-5
now she has 7 more than fred (fred has (1/4)x

so

(3/4)x-5 is 7 more than (1/4)x
(3/4)x-5=7+(1/4)x
add 5 to both sides
(3/4)x=12+(1/4)x
minus (1/4)x from both sides
(2/4)x=12
(1/2)x=12
times 2/1 both sides
2/2x=24
x=24

she had 24 to begin with

Answer:

20 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is a rectangle, we know that there are two pairs of sides the same length. All we have to do is add each number by itself, and add those numbers together, or you can envision it like this graph I made.

4+4=8

6+6=12

8+12=20
