To find the missing length \( s \) given the area and one of the dimensions, we can use the formula for the area of a rectangle, which is:

\[
\text{Area} = \text{length} \times \text{width}
\]

In your case, it seems you have one dimension (length) as 4 ft and the area as 28 ft².

Let the missing length \( s \) be the width. We can then set up the equation:

\[
28 \, \text{ft}^2 = 4 \, \text{ft} \times s
\]

To solve for \( s \), divide both sides by 4 ft:

\[
s = \frac{28 \, \text{ft}^2}{4 \, \text{ft}} = 7 \, \text{ft}
\]

So the missing length \( s \) is **7 feet**.
