Answer: Micah

Explanation:

Given

Raven told Perimeter of the swimming pool is
35\ ft

Micah said Perimeter is
24\ ft

The actual dimension of the swimming pool is
5\ ft* 7\ ft

Perimeter is given by
2(l+w)

Using this, the perimeter is


\Rightarrow P=2(5+7)\\\Rightarrow P=2* 12=24\ ft


\therefore Micah statement is correct.
