Question

The length of a rectangle is four times its width.

If the perimeter of the rectangle is 60 ft, find its length and width.

Answer 1

Length is 24ft

Width is 6ft

The person above me is correct aswell

Answer 2

area= 144ft^2

Explanation:

width = x

length = 4x

perimeter = 2(4x+x)

60/2=5x

30=5x

x=30/5

x=6

width 6 feet

length 4(6)

= 24

area = length * width

=6*24

=144ft^2
