Answer:

68 feet, by 32 feet.

Explanation:

Area of left rectangle: 2176

Area of right rectangle: 2176

Let l equal length, and w equal width

lw=2176

2l+2w=200

w=2176/l

2l+2(2176/l)=200

2l+4352/l=200

2l^2+4352=200l

2l^2-200l+4352=0

Solutions to the quadratic: 32 and 68.

Length is longer than width, so length is 68, width is 32.
