You can put this solution on YOUR website! An architect designes a rectangular flower garden such that the width is exactly two-thirds of the length. IF 260 feet of antique picket fencing are to be used to enclose the garden, find the dimensions of the garden.
Let length be x
Width = 2/3 x
2x+4/3 x=260
6x+4x/3 =260 LCD
10x/3 =260
10x=780
X=78 feet
Width = 52 feet
