Width: x
length: x + 4
Equation: 2(x + x + 4) = 56
2(2x + 4) = 56
4x + 8 = 56
4x = 48, x = 12
Width = 12, 12 + 4 = length
Solution: the length is 16 inch
First, change the fractions to a common denominator, which is 21.
so 3/7 * 3/3 = 9/21
1/3 * 7/7 = 7/21
Add the two together
9/21 + 7/21 = 16/21
Then take 21/21 - 16/21 = 5/21
