document.write( "Hi,
\n" );
document.write( "Let x represent the width ⇒ length is 8x
\n" );
document.write( "Question States*** P = 1350ft = 2L + 2w
\n" );
document.write( " l + w = 675ft
\n" );
document.write( " 8x + x = 675ft
\n" );
document.write( "   9x = 675ft
\n" );
document.write( "    x = 75ft, the width. Then length is 600ft
\n" );
document.write( "  \n" );
