You can put this solution on YOUR website! For a rectangle: = area = length = width
----------------------
(1)
----------------------
given:
(2)
-----------------------
This is THREE MORE than twice the width
---------------------------------------
Your problem says " three TIMES " more than
twice the width " this is strange wording and
I don't think it is really what is meant.
----------------------------------------
I can substitute (2) into (1)
(1)
