Hi there!
The word "of" is the same thing as a multiplication sign.
1)
20% = 0.2
0.2 × 20 = 4
2)
? × 30 = 15
divide each side of the equation by 30
? = 0.5
0.5 = 50%
3)
50% = 0.5
0.5 × ? = 50
divide each side of the equation by 0.5
? = 100
There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)
Answer:
4 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:

The new rectangle's sides will be x and x+8, so the area of the new figure will be x^2+8x.
We know that the new area is 3 times the old one. So our equation will be:
x^2+8x=3x^2
our answer will be x=4.
Therfore, the length of the side of the old flower bed is 4 ft.
