Answer:

240

Step-by-step explanation:

So let the first side be x. So the next side is 3x and the last side is (3x +60) . Add all 3 sides and set equal to 480. So x + 3x + (3x +60)= 480. Now do the Algebra. So 7x + 60 = 480. Subtracting 60 we get 7x = 420 so x= 60. You are asked to ffg ind the length of the longest side so 3(60) + 60 = 240.
