Answer:

  9 ft, 22 ft, 23 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the length of the shortest side. Then the middle length side is (2s+4) and the longest side is (3s-4). The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths:

  54 = s +(2s +4) +(3s -4)

  54 = 6s . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms

  9 = s . . . . . . . . . . divide by 6

  2s+4 = 2·9 +4 = 22

  3s -4 = 3·9 -4 = 23

The lengths of the three sides are 9 feet, 22 feet, and 23 feet.

52/3 - 10
Convert both numbers into fractions.
52/3 - 10/1
Make sure they both have the same denominator
52/3 - 30/3
Now you can take the numerator and subtract it.
22/3
Now you simply simplify
7 1/3
So the answer is 7 1/3
