    From question, we have,

    x + (x + 4) + (x + 4 + 4) + (x + 4 + 4 + 4) + (x + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4) + (x + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4) + (x + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4) = 182

    => x + x + 4 + x + 8 + x + 12 + x + 16 + x + 20 + x + 24 = 182

    => 7x + 84 = 182

    => 7x = 182 - 84

    => x = 98/7

    => x = 14

    hence the length of the side labelled x = 14 cm
