\n" ); document.write( "The width is 55 metres.
\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter=240 metres
\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter=2(length+width)
\n" ); document.write( "2(x+55)=240
\n" ); document.write( "x+55=120
\n" ); document.write( "x=65 metres.
\n" ); document.write( "The length is 65 metres. \n" ); document.write( "
