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