Question 859513
A rectangular room is four times as long as it is wide, and its perimeter is 90 meters. Find the width of the room. Find the length of the room.
------------------
Equations:
L = 4W
----
P = 2(length + width)
90 = 2(4W + W)
5W = 45
W = 9 meters (width)
----
L = 4W = 36 meters (length)
