The perimeter of the sandbox is 60 ft.
5x5=25
Two sides = 25, so 25+25 = 50.
Two other sides = 5, so 5+5=10
50+10 = 60, and that is the correct answer.

$\bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
pineapple&orange\\
\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash&\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\\
\frac{2}{3}&\frac{1}{3}\\\\
x&1
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\frac{2}{3}}{x}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{3}}{1}\implies \cfrac{\frac{2}{3}}{\frac{x}{1}}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{3}}{\frac{1}{1}}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\$

$\bf \textit{now recall that }\qquad \cfrac{\frac{a}{b}}{\frac{c}{{{ d}}}}\implies \cfrac{a}{b}\cdot \cfrac{{{ d}}}{c}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{2}{3}\cdot \cfrac{1}{x}=\cfrac{1}{3}\cdot \cfrac{1}{1}\implies \cfrac{2}{3x}=\cfrac{1}{3}\implies 2\cdot 3=1\cdot 3x\implies 6=3x
\\\\\\
\cfrac{6}{3}=x$

and surely, you know how much that is
