Answer:

The length of the second painting is 3 feet.

Explanation:

painting 1: area of 32 sq ft with a length of 4

painting 2: area of 24 sq ft with the same width as painting 1

painting 1 width = 32/4

32/4 = 8

width is 8 feet

so then to get the length of painting 2

divide the area by the width

painting 2 length = 24/8

24/8 = 3

length is 3 feet
