Daniel is adding a metal border to a company's lawn to stop the grass growth. The length of the lawn is 42 yards and the width is 27 yards.
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "Depends on the width of the border, W
\n" ); document.write( "The outside dimensions are 42 + 2W and 27 + 2W
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract the inner rectangle, 42*27.
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Area = (42+2W)*(27+2W) - 42*27\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
