The area of the triangle to the area of the rectangle in the figure is in the ratio 3 : 2. After the shaded rectangle of length 8 cm is removed from the figure, the ratio of the remaining area of the triangle to the remaining area of the rectangle is 5 : 3. Given that the area of the triangle is 32 cm2 more than the area of the rectangle, find the width of the shaded rectangle that is being removed.
