Question

16.The length of a rectangular field is 6m more than its width and the perimeter of the field is 72m. What are the length and the width?​

Answer 1

Let w= width

w+6= length

A rectangle has opposite sides equal, therefore, w+w+w+6+w+6=72

4w+12=72

4w= 60

w=15

If the width is 15, then the length = w+6=15+6=21

ANSWER: 21m
