Okay! I think I figured it out.
So you know that A + B + C + D + E + F = 36 ft.
You also know that A + C = E and that B + D = F.
Now they give you the clue that E is 8 ft.
They also tell you that A, B, C, and D are consecutive numbers. Meaning that they are right next to each other so like 1, 2, 3, and 4.
Based on this, I got that A = 3 ft., B = 4 ft., C = 5 ft., and D = 6 ft. Then I made sure that 3 ft. + 5 ft. = 8ft. True. Then I concluded that F must be equal to 10 ft.
I added (A) 3 ft. + (B) 4 ft. + (C) 5 ft. + (D) 6 ft. + (E) 8 ft. + (F) 10 ft. = 36 ft.
