The perimeter of a rectangular field in 248m. The length of the field is equal to three times its width. What are the field's dimensions? Answer by waynest(281) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! length = 3w
p = 2w + 2L
2w + 2(3w) = 248
2w + 6w = 248
8w = 248
8w/8 = 248/8
w = 31
check:
2(31) + 2(3(31)) = 248
62 + 2(93) = 248
62 + 186 = 248
248 = 248
