Question

The sheep pen is 24m in perimeter, the length is 3times the width what’s the length and the width?

Answer 1

Answer:

Width=6 m

length=18 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width/breadth be 'x'.

According to the problem, length = 3x

now, we have

perimeter=2(l+b)

            24=2(3x+x)

            24=2(4x)

            24=8x

            $\frac{24}{8}$  =x

              3=x

Now, we have the value of x.

putting the values,

width = x = 3 m

length = 3x = 3*3 = 9 m

i hope this is going to help!

Answer 2

Answer:

IT is 3 as width and 9 as length

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have 3 then multiply it by 3 you get 9

then you can check it by saying 3+3=6 and

9+9=18 so 18+6=24m
