One side of a rectangular lot is three times longer than the other . Its perimeter fence is 48 meters/long what is the length and width of the lot?

Answer:

6m and 18m

Step-by-step explanation:

Define x:

Let x be the width of the rectangle

The length of the rectangle is 3x

Solve x

Perimeter = 2(Length + Width)

48 = 2( 3x + x)

48 = 2(4x)

48 = 8x

x = 48 ÷ 8

x = 6

Find the length and width:

Width = x = 6m

Length = 3x = 3(6) = 18 m

Answer: The length and width is 6 m and 18 m
