The total length of the pole is $\"L\"$ .
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%281%2F2%29L%2B%281%2F3%29L%2B4=L\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply both sides by $\"6\"$ .
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3L%2B2L%2B24=6L\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5L%2B24=6L\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28L=24%29\"$ meters \n" ); document.write( "
