SOLUTION

If the width of a pool is 60 ft and the perimeter is 200 ft.

How long is the pool?

Given the perimeter = 200 ft

Width = 60 ft

Length = x

Perimeter = 2 ( L + W )

200 = 2 ( L + 60 )

Divide both sides by 2, we have :

100 = L + 60

L = 100 - 60

L = 40 ft.......................OPTION A
