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.
