The length of a rectangle field is twice it's breadth. If the perimeter of the field is 72m . Find it's area
------------------
Equations from the narrative:
L = 2W
---
Perimeter = 2(L+W) = 72
L+W = 36
---
Substitute for "L" and solve for "W":
2W+W = 36
W = 12
---
Since L = 2W, L = 6
-----
Area = 6*12 = 72 sq meters
