width = w
\n" ); document.write( "length = 2w - 5
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2l+%2B+2w+=+230\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2%282w+-+5%29+%2B+2w+=+230\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4w+-+10+%2B+2w+=+230\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"6w+=+240\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"w+=+40\"$
\n" ); document.write( "length = 2w - 5 = 80 - 5 = 75
\n" ); document.write( "75 x 40 \n" ); document.write( "
