    Suppose width is X

    then length would be X+44

    perimeter of rectangle = 2 (length + width)

    substitute:

    328 = 2 (X+44 + X)

    328 = 2 (2X + 44)

    328 = 4X + 88

    328 - 88 = 4X

    240 = 4X

    240/4 = X

    X = 60

    substitute in the first and second line

    width is X so width = 60 feet

    length is X + 44 = 60 + 44 = 104 feet
