Given data:

The given length of the rectangle is L=60 inches.

The given width of the rectangle is bB=4J.

The perimeter of the rectangle is P=400 inches.

The expression for the perimeter of the rectangle is,

P=2(L+B)

Substitute the given values in the above expression.

400 inches=2(60 inches+4J)

200 inches=60 inches+4J

140 inches=4J

J=35 inches

Thus, the value of J is 35 inches.
