Problema Solution

In a small rectangular garden is 24 feet the length is 2 feet more than the width find the length of the width of the garden

Answer provided by our tutors

we assume this question should be: "the perimeter of a small rectangular garden is 24 feet"


let 'w' represent the width, then 'w+2' represents the width


perimeter = 2(l+w), where 'l' and 'w' are length and width, respectively


24 = 2(w + w+2)

solving for 'w' we have w=5


5+2=7


the width is 5 ft, the length is 7 ft
