How to find area of a rectangle

Initial dimensions:

Length = 14 inches

Width = 10 inches

New dimensions:

Length = 14 + x

Width = 10 + x

Area = 320 square inches

Area of a rectangle = Length × Width

320 = (14 + x) × (10 + x)

320 = 14x × 10x

320 = 140x²

x² = 320/140

x² = 2.28571428571428

x = √2.28571428571428

x = 1.511857892036908908858066144936720243

Approximately,

x = 1.5
