Daniel made a bench that has a seat with an area of 16 square feet. The length and the width of the seat are whole numbers. The length is 4 times greater than the width. What are the dimensions of the seat?

dimensions of the seat are 2 feet and 8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

area = 16 square feet

length = 4 times greater than the width

solution

we know that area is express as

Area = L × W    1

here L is length and W is width

put here value we get

16 = L × W      2

and we know

L  = 4W  ( as given )      3

so put that in equation 2 we get

16 = 4W × W

4W²  16

solve it we get

W = 2

so here put this value in equation 3 we get

L  = 4 × 2

L = 8

so the dimensions of the seat are 2 feet and 8 feet

what is the starting amount? the question is not clear sorry.
