Question

A rectangular field is ten times as long as it is wide. If the perimeter of the field is 1760 feet, what are the dimensions of the field?

The width of the field is _______ feet.

The length of the field is _______ feet.

Answer 1

The Length is 800 feet and Width is 80 feet

Explanation:

Length = 10x Width = x

2(10x + x) = 20x + 2x = 22x

22x = 1760

x = 80

10x = 800

The Length is 800 feet and Width is 80 feet
