Answer: our rectangle is 23 meters of width and is 54 meters long.

Explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2*W + 2*L

where W is the width and L is the length.

We know that W = 23m and P = 154m

then:

154m = 2*23m + 2*L

(154m - 2*23m)/2 = L = 54m

So our rectangle is 23 meters of width and is 54 meters long.
