Question

Martin needs 60 meters of fence to surround a rectangular garden.
The length of the garden is twice its width, w . How wide is the garden?

Answer 1

Answer:

The garden is 10 ft. wide.

Step-by-step explanation:

2 • (2w + w) = 60 here is an equation to show how I got the width (10 ft.)

2 x 3w = 60

6w = 60

Divide 6 from both sides, 6 & 6 cancel out and 60 divided by 6 is 10.
