<PRE><B>Question 956109</B>
Please help me with this problem:The floor of a cabin is shaped like a rectangle. It has a surface area of 288 square feet. If the perimeter of the floor is 68 feet, what is the length of the floor?
----------------
P = 2L + 2W = 68
L + W = 34
L*W = 288
----------
Find a pair of factors of 288 with a sum of 34.
