A=lw=150\\l=w+6\\(w+6)w=150\\w^2+6w=150\\w^2+6w-150=0\\w=\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\w=\frac{-(6)+-\sqrt{(6)^2-4(1)(-150)}}{2(1)}\\w=\frac{-6+-\sqrt{36+600}}{2}\\w=\frac{-6+-\sqrt{636}}{2}\\w=\frac{-6+-2\sqrt{159}}{2}\\w=-3+-\sqrt{159}>0\\w=-3+\sqrt{159}\\\\l=(-3+\sqrt{159})+6\\l=3+\sqrt{159}

Width = -3 + sqrt(159)
Length = 3 + sqrt(159)

Deena has a bottle of 4/10
John has a bottle of 25/10 or 2 1/2 (simplified)
