The dimensions such as length is 18 and width is 16 or length is 32 and width is 9 will produce an enclosed area of 288ft.
<h3>What is the dimension of length and width?</h3>
We know that,
P = l + 2w
50 = l + 2w
50 - 2w = l
A = l x w
288 = (50 - 2w)w
288 = 50w -2w²
2w² - 50w + 288
By dividing throughout by 2
w² - 25w + 144
This is in quadratic equation form.
By applying quadratic formula,
w = (-(-25) ± 
) / 2
w = (-(-25) ± 7)/2
w1 = (-(-25) + 7)/2
w1 = (25 + 7) / 2
w1 = 16
w2 = (-(-25) - 7)/2
w2 = (25 - 7) / 2
w2 = 9
By substituting the values in eq1,
A = l x w
if w = 16
288 = l x 16
l = 288/16
l = 18
if w = 9
288 = l x 9
l = 288/9
l = 32
The dimensions will be length is 18 and width is 16 or length is 32 and width is 9.

1. You convert all the numbers into decimals.
a. For 8 1/9 you multiply 8x9 and add the numerator which in this case is one, so the equation would be 8x9=72 then 72+1= 73
b. For 81/10 I used a calculator for accuracy and I just divided 81 by 10 because the fraction line can also be used as a division sign. For this I got 8.1
2. Now I looked at all the numbers I had including the fractions I converted to decimals... 8.115, 8.55, 73, and 8.1
3. Lastly, I put the numbers in order from least to greatest: 8.1, 8.115, 8.55, and 73
4. In order to figure out which one is the smallest and largest, I just added zeros on the end of the numbers so they would all be the same: 8.1-->8.100, 8.115 I kept the same because it already had 3 decimal places, 8.55--> 8.550, and 73--> 73.000
5. Then i could tell which number was the largest by the decimal place numbers.
**Hope this was helpful... It's kind of hard to explain online but hopefully you have a better understanding of how to do it!**
Answer: (D) 
Explanation:
Just a note on writing down these expressions: I recommend using parentheses whenever you can to avoid misinterpretation. An expression 1/x-1/y / 1/x+1/y could be interpreted by someone as 1/x-(1/y / 1/x)+1/y, which is a different thing.
