A = l × w. Substitute 72 into A and fill in the rest of the equation.
w = l - 1. Plug l - 1 into w
72 = l × (l - 1). Multiply l by (l - 1)
72 = l^2 - l. Subtract 72 from each side.
0 = l^2 - l - 72. Factor.
0 = (l + 8) (l - 9). Set each term equal to zero.
(l + 8) = 0. Subtract 8 from each side.
l = -8. Length cant be a negative number so let's try the other term.
(l - 9) = 0. Add 9 to each side.
l = 9. The length is 9.
Earlier we stated that the width is one less than the length, therefore, the width is 9 - 1 = 8.
The width is 8 units.

It is the sum of the integers from 1-41 minus the sum of the integers from 1-24 divided by 17
the sum of the integers from 1-41 is (42)(45)/2 = 861
the sum of the integers from 1-24 is (24)(25)/2 = 300
(861-300)/17 = 33
The answer is 33
