Answer:
Because you pay attention in school. Thank you for the points!!
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length be x and the width be y, then
2x + 2y = 56
x + y = 28 . . . (1)
x = 4 + 3y . . . (2)
Putting (2) into (1) gives
4 + 3y + y = 28
4y = 28 - 4 = 24
y = 24/4 = 6
x = 4 + 3(6) = 4 + 18 = 22
Therefore, length is 22 inches and width is 6 inches.

195 divided by 750 is 0.26
To make a number into a fraction you have to move the decimal two spots to the right to make the number into 26.00 (26)
That means 195 out of 750 is 26%
