    L = 25 inches

    W = 19 inches

    Equation = L + W = P (44), 25 + 19 = 44, 2 / (44 - 6)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If the total is 44 you subtract 6 from 44, then divide the quotient by 2.

    This gives you 19, w. Then you take the width and add 6, which is 25 this is the length.
