The possibles are that they will stay the same
Hey there!!
Perimeter of a rectangle =2 ( length + width )
Let's take the measure of the width as ' x '
Then, the length would be ' 3x '
Hence,
... 2 ( x + 3x ) = 96
... 2 ( 4x ) = 96
... 8x = 96
... x = 96 / 8
... x = 12
Width = 12 inches
And, length would be 36 inches.
Hope my answer helps!!

Answer: Fran's number is 70
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent Jen's number.
Let y represent Carrie's number.
Let z represent Fran's number.
When you add their numbers together you get 207. This means that
x + y + z = 207 - - - - - - - - - -1
Jen's number is 9 more than Carrie's number. It means that
y = x - 9
Fran's number is 3 less than Jen's number. It means that
z = x - 3
Substituting y = x - 9 and z = x - 3 into equation 1, it becomes.
x + x - 9 + x - 3 = 207
3x - 12 = 207
3x = 207 + 12 = 219
x = 219/3 = 73
y = x - 9 = 73 - 9
y = 64
z = x - 3 = 73 - 3
z = 70
