Perimeter = 2l + 2w
Measurements can not be negative. Also, if the width was zero, you would not have a shape at all.

The perimeter of a rectangle is to be no greater than 300 and the length must be 125 in. Find the maximum width of the rectangle.
:
Remember the perimeter equation:
2L + 2W = P
:
You know the length and the perimeter Substitute for L & P:
2(125) + 2W =< 300
:
250 + 2W =< 300
:
2W =< 300 - 250
:
2W =< 50
:
W =< 50/2
:
W =< 25
