First set up an equation as your approach. I will use the equation x+4x=24 because that way you are saying that something pluse itself times 4 equals 24 which is what you want.
simplify the equation
5x=24
x=24/5
So you know onw piece will be 24/5 of a foot and the ither qould be that times 4 so 96/24 of a foot. In decimals it would be 4.8 and 19.2

Answer:
13, 14
Step-by-step explanation:
The parameters of the numbers are;
A whole number value = 2 × Another number + 6
The sum of the two numbers is less than 50
Given that the first number is equal to more than twice the second number, we have that the first number is the larger number, while the second number is the smaller number
Where 'x' represents the second number, we get;
x + 2·x + 6 < 50
Simplifying gives;
3·x + 6 < 50
x < (50 - 6)/3 = 14.
x < 14.
Therefore, the numbers for which the inequality holds true are numbers less than 14.. From the given option, the numbers are 13, and 14.
