A rectangle is three times longer than its wide. The perimeter is 720. What are the dimensions?
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( "width::w
\n" ); document.write( "length:: 3w
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter = 2(length + width)
\n" ); document.write( "720 = 2(3w+w)
\n" ); document.write( "360 = 4w
\n" ); document.write( "width = 90
\n" ); document.write( "length = 3w = 270
