Answer:

I only have an answer to number 2 but the dimensions are 20 and 120.

Step-by-step explanation:

well you can remove the zeroes and factor either the 28 or 24. (I think 24 is the best) so when you factor it you get 2 and 12 because 2 x 12 is 24 and 2 + 2 + 12 + 12 is 28. Then add the zeroes and you have your dimensions. I hope that explanation helped with number 2.
