You can put this solution on YOUR website!
s=4lw+2wh
-----------
Is it 4LW ?
Or 41W ?
---------
That's the only possible L, must be it.
All you can do is isolate the L, get it one side of the equal sign by itself.
S = 4LW + 2WH
S - 2WH = 4LW
4LW = S - 2WH
L = (S - 2WH)/4W
-----------------
How could you get 48?
