A = [tex] \frac{1}{1 + 2 + 4} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{1}{7} [/tex]
B = [tex] \frac{2}{1 + 2 + 4} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{2}{7} [/tex]
C = [tex] \frac{4}{1 + 2 + 4} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{4}{7} [/tex]
C - B = 24 feet
[tex] \frac{4}{7} [/tex] - [tex] \frac{2}{7} [/tex] = 24 feet
[tex] \frac{2}{7} [/tex] = 24 feet
Question: A number multiplied by [tex] \frac{2}{7} [/tex] yields 24 feet, what is the number?
[tex] \frac{2}{7} [/tex] (x ) = 24 feet
(Multiply [tex] \frac{7}{2} [/tex] to both sides to eliminate [tex] \frac{2}{7} [/tex] )
x = [tex] \frac{24 x 7}{2} [/tex]
x = [tex] \frac{168}{2} [/tex]
x = 84 feet
