A and C are the correct steps to solve the problem.
A. Multiply 28 × 4 to find the length.
28 ÷ 4 = 7, so the length is 7 feet.
C. Multiply the length by 4 to find the perimeter.
The perimeter is 2 times the width plus 2 times the length.
Perimeter = 2(4) + 2(7) = 8 + 14 = 22 feet.
Therefore, the correct steps to solve the problem are: A and C.
