Start with a square, and label the sides x by x.
\n" ); document.write( "Each resulting rectangle will be (1/6)x by x.
\n" ); document.write( "The sum of the perimeters is \"6%282%281%2F6%29x%2B2x%29=120\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Simplify and solve for x.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"2x%2B12x=120\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"14x=120\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=120%2F14\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28x=60%2F7=8%264%2F7%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Find \"x%5E2\" to get area.
\n" ); document.write( "
