Area of Consuela's rectangular living room = 360 square feet
Let us assume the the length of the living room = x
Then
width of the living room = (5/8) * x
= (5x/8)
Then
Area of the rectangle = Length * Width
360 = x * (5x/8)
360 = 5x^2/8
2880 = 5x^2
x^2 = 2880/5
x^2 = 576
x^2 = (24)^2 inches
x = 24
Then
The length of the rectangle is = 24 inches
And
The Width of the rectangle is = 24 * (5/8) inches
= 3 * 5 inches
= 15 inches
