Question 817692: A rectangular field is four times as long as it is wide. If the perimeter of the field is 500 feet, what are the dimensions of the field? Recall, perimeter = 2(length) + 2(width). Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! L = 4w
2L + 2w = 500
---
2L + 2w = 500
2(4w) + 2w = 500
8w + 2w = 500
10w = 500
---
w = 50 ft
L = 200 ft
