Hi There,

----------------------------------------

We Know:

Total Perimeter = 450 feet

Length is 2 times the width.

----------------------------------------

Solution:

Length = 150

Width = 75

75 x 2 = 150

150 + 150 + 75 + 75 = 450

----------------------------------------

Answer:

Length = 150 feet.

Width = 75 feet.

----------------------------------------

Hope This Helps :)
