Question

Perimeter of a rectangular garden is 32 feet. The length is 3 times the width.

What are the dimensions of the garden?

Answer 1

the equation would be (3w+w)2=32.

this means you add 3 times the width p,us the width (length plus width).

this becomes 6w=32.

w=5 1/3.

l=3w

l=3(5 1/3)

l=16
