Question

The field width of thestadium is 40m lessthan its length. The total length of the rectangular boundary of the open space in canopy is 420m. Frame a suitable

equation for the given situation and also find the length and width of the field in the stadium.

Answer 1

I may have misubderstood the question, so review carefully.

width = 380 m

length is 420 m

Explanation:

Let w and l stand for the width and length of the stadium.

We are told that w = l - 40 m

We also learn that l = 420 m

w = l - 40 m

w = (420 m) - 40 m

width = 380 m

length is 420 m
