X/0.5 = 24
X/0.5(0.5) = 24(0.5)
X = 12

Mark me brainliest!!
A rug maker is using a pattern that is a rectangle with a length of 96 inches and a width of 60 inches. The rug maker wants to increase each dimension by a different amount. Let l and w be the increases in the length and width. Write and simplify an expression for the perimeter of the new pattern.
p=2(96+l)+2(60+w)
This is the equation. p is for perimeter. (96+l) represents the original length plus the change in length. The 2 before (96+l) represents that there is one length on each side of the rectangle.
Same for the width. (60+w) represents the original width plus the change in width. The 2 before (60+w) represents that there is one width on each side of the rectangle.
The simplified equation is p=(192+2l)+(120+2w) (this is your answer)
I hope this helps!
Box = b
Parrots = p
b/p = number of days it can support the parrots
Half a dozen = 6 (A dozen is 12)
1/6 = 15
To work out the percentage of '6' '5' is, use the equation
(5/6)*100 = 83.333....
Meaning that with one less bird, the box will support the birds for 16.666... (100 - 18.333...) longer
(15/100)*116.666... = 17.4999....
The box will sustain the parrots for 17.5 days
