Answer:

The sides are

inches,

inches and

inches

Explanation:

I'd suggest that the question should read 'The perimeter of a triangle is 24 inches. The longest side is 4 inches longer than the shortest side, and the shortest side is three-fourths the length of the middle side. How do you find the length of each side of the triangle?'

In this case the question can be answered. If

is the length of the middle side, then the shortest side is 3/4x and the longest side is 3/4x+4

x+3/4x+3/4x+4=24

10/4x=20

x=8

Then the shortest side is 6and the longest side is 10
