It's almost right
\n" ); document.write( "\"no greater than\" is another way of saying \"less than or equal to\"
\n" ); document.write( "the perimeter = 2l + 2w
\n" ); document.write( "2l + 2w <= 300
\n" ); document.write( "w = 125
\n" ); document.write( "2l + 2(125) <= 300
\n" ); document.write( "2l + 250 <= 300 (this is close to what you got)
\n" ); document.write( "subtract 250 from both sides
\n" ); document.write( "2l <= 50
\n" ); document.write( "l <= 25
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
