Answer:

the length— 6

width— is 9

Explanation:

you said One side— 3m MORE

so we will consider the length Number as X

we will consider width As three plus X

- You want to know the Perimeter. So we have to

add.

— so the expression is 3+3+x+x+x+x = 30

it is then simplified to 6+4x= 30

then we should be able to find out the X which is 6

when we substitute the values with dimensions, you will get

your final Answer

I hope This Helped!
