Question

A rectangular field is eleven times as long as it is wide. If the perimeter of the field is 1680 feet, what are the dimensions of the field? A) Write an equation you can use to answer the given question. Let w be the width of the field.

Answer 1

2(w+11w)=1680

Explanation:

If the width is w, then the length is 11w.

Using the formula for the perimeter of the rectangle, the equation is 2(w+11w)=1680
