L=W+60
\n" ); document.write( "2L+2W=220
\n" ); document.write( "2(W+60)+2W=220
\n" ); document.write( "2W+120+2W=220
\n" ); document.write( "4W=220-120
\n" ); document.write( "4W=100
\n" ); document.write( "W=100/4
\n" ); document.write( "W=25 IN. IS THE WIDTH.
\n" ); document.write( "L=25+60=85 IN. IS THE LENGTH.
\n" ); document.write( "PROOF:
\n" ); document.write( "2*85+2*25=220
