Width and length

A rectangle's length is three times more than twice its width. Suppose the perimeter of the rectangle is 60 feet. What is the length of the rectangle?

Correct answer:

l =  22.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

3w = l 60 = 2l+2w  60=2 l+2 l/3  8l=180  l=8180=22.5=22.5 ft  l=245=22.5   Verifying Solution:  w=l/3=22.5/3=215=7.5 ft p=2 (l+w)=2 (22.5+7.5)=60 ft
