• The length of one side of the garage originally is approximately 14.9 ft
,• The length of one side of the garage now is approximately 18.3 ft
Explanation:Old garage = 222 sq. ft
New garage has 50% more floor space.
50% of 222 = 111
Therefore, the new garage is (222 + 111) sq. ft = 333 sq. ft
Since the garage is square,
one side of the old garage is:
[tex]\sqrt[]{222}=14.9\text{ ft}[/tex]One side of the new garage is:
[tex]\sqrt[]{333}=18.3\text{ ft}[/tex]
