Let W = the width, then the length, L = W+4
The perimeter of a rectangle is given by:
P = 2(L+W) and this is to be at least (that's greater than or equal to) 108 meters, so...
Substitute L = W+4
Simplify.
Divide both sides by 2.
Subtract 4 from both sides.
Divide both sides by 2.
The width, W, must be at least 25 meters.
