Answer:

length=16feet  width=12feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This may not be the best way, i just stumbled upon the answer using this.

I knew 14*14=196, which is relatively close to 192.

Then, I took away 2 from one of the 14s and added it to the other 14.

14-2=12    14+2=16

Apparently, 16*12 is 192, so that's the answer.
