Question

The length of a rectangle is three times its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 40yd, find its length and width.

Answer 1

length=15 yards

width=5 yards

Explanation:

the rectangle is 5 x 15, because it is the only value that gives you a perimeter of 40 yards.

5x2 =10

15x2=30

30+10=40
