Hi there,
\n" ); document.write( "Make the width = 'x'
\n" ); document.write( "Length = x + 3
\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter of a rectangle =
\n" ); document.write( "2 x Width + 2 x Length
\n" ); document.write( "98cm = 2(x) + 2(x + 3)
\n" ); document.write( "98cm = 2x + 2x + 6
\n" ); document.write( "Collect like terms:
\n" ); document.write( "2x + 2x = 98 - 6
\n" ); document.write( "4x = 92
\n" ); document.write( "x = 23
\n" ); document.write( "Width = 23 cm
\n" ); document.write( "Length = 26 cm
\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps :-)
