Answer: Length = 24; width =4

Step-by-step explanation

Since the ratio of the length to width is 6:1

Let the length  be represented as  6x

And the width be  = x

Such that that the Perimeter of the rectangle which is  

Perimeter = 2(length + width)  becomes

56 = 2(6x + x)

56/2 = 6x+x

28 = 7x

x = 4

Width = 4

Length = 6x= 6 x 4 = 24

the sum of four consecutive integers is 2174. what are the integers? (continuation) the smallest of four consecutive integers is
timofeeve [1]
The smallest of the four numbers is x.
Since the four numbers are consecutive, this means that each number is one more than the previous.
Therefore, the four numbers are:
x
x + 1
x+1 + 1 = x+2
x+2 + 1 = x+3

Now, we are given that the sum (s) of the four numbers is 2174
This means that:
s = x+x+1+x+2+x+3
s = 4x + 6

We are given that s = 2174. Substitute with s in the above equation and solve for x as follows:
2174 = 4x + 6
4x = 2174 - 6
4x = 2168
x = 2168 / 4
x = 542

Based on the above calculations, the four numbers are:
542, 543, 544 and 555
