Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of rectangle = 208 m

2*(l + w) = 208  {divide both sides by 2}

l +w = 208/2

l +w = 104

l = 104 - w

Area of rectangle = 2415 square meters

l*w = 2415

Substitute l = 104 - w in the above equation,

(104 - w ) *w = 2415

104w - w² = 2415

0 = 2415 - 104w + w²

w² - 104w + 2415 = 0

Sum = -104

Product  = 2415

Factors = (-69) , (-35)

w² - 35w - 69w + (-69)*(-35) = 0

w(w - 35) - 69(w - 35) = 0

(w -35)(w -69)

w - 35 = 0    ; w  -69 = 0

w = 35    ; w = 69

The dimensions of the building: 35 , 69

Can 24 7ths be equal to another fraction or be simplified in another way
Jobisdone [24]
To check if an improper fraction like like 24/7 can still be simplified, you have to find similar factors that can divide both the numerator (24) and the denominator (7). However in this case, there are no longer any common factors that can divide both of them. However, improper fractions can be represented in a mixed fraction form. 

A mixed fraction is made up of a whole number and a fraction. To change an improper fraction to a mixed fraction, divide the numerator by the denominator. The quotient should be a whole number and a remainder. The whole number in the quotient would be the whole number in the mixed fraction, and the remainder would be the numerator.

In the case of 24/7, dividing it would yield us 3 remainder 3. Therefore, the mixed fraction would be:
