Question

The perimeter of a rectangular garden is 84 feet. The length of the garden is twice the
width. What is the width of the garden?
feet​

Answer 1

Answer:

The width of the garden is 14 feet.

If w represents the width and the length is twice the width, then it can be said that:

2w + 2w + w + w = 84

Simplified, this would be:

6w = 84

And when simplified further:

w = 14
