W = x
\n" ); document.write( "L = 3x
\n" ); document.write( "2x + 6x = 96
\n" ); document.write( "8x = 96
\n" ); document.write( "x = 12 This is our width.
\n" ); document.write( "3x = 36 This is our length.
\n" ); document.write( "2(12) = 24
\n" ); document.write( "2(36) = 72
\n" ); document.write( "24 m + 72 m = 96 m.
\n" ); document.write( "This does check.
