A rectangle field is 3 times as long as it is wide. If the perimeter of the field is 280 yards, what are the fields dimensions

Length 105 by 35 Width

280/4
70
70*3=210
70*1=70
210/2=105
70/2=35

105 by 35
Sorry if it’s wrong!!
I think this is the right one in comparison to the other person because it’s talking about perimeter.... Idek where they got 10 by 30 from.
The area of that is 300 and the perimeter would be 80 not 280
