Draw a diagram! Lets say the width is x, then the length must be 2x.
Area = length x width
2x x x = 8sq meters
2x^2 = 8
x^2 =4
x = √4
x = 2
we found the width the length is two times the width, making it 4 meters.
What ? thats very confusing what is the question you have to give more info
I think that she started with 10.. I'm not 100% sure, though
