width = x, length = y

x + y = 24
108 < xy < 150

x = 7, y = 17 --> xy = 119
x = 8, y = 16 --> xy = 128
x = 9, y = 15 --> xy = 135
x = 10, y = 14 --> xy = 140
x = 11, y = 13 --> xy = 143
x = 12, y = 12 --> xy = 144
x = 13, y = 11 --> xy = 143
x = 14, y = 10 --> xy = 140
x = 15, y = 9 --> xy = 135
x = 16, y = 8 --> xy = 128
x = 17, y = 7 --> xy = 119
