Answer:
length=53 in
width= 23 in
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we know that each corner has now a square of 6 in long, so the heigth of the box will be of this size (as you can see in the picture attached). Then, the length and the width of the box would be the same as the piece, but with 12 in less. Therefore the equations to solve the problem are:

We factorize the 6 and we get:

Finally we solve for x, and we get the initial dimensions of the piece of metal:


That’s really cool but thanks for free pointss <333
1/2 + 1/4 = 3/4
3/4 + 1/4 = 1
Subtract the year the pilgrims sailed from the year you want to find the distance from:
