Answer: 27cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
lets take the width as x and length as 3x( since length is 3 times the width)…
Perimeter of the rectangle is 24 cm( 2*(l+b))= 2×(3x+x):24
2×4x=24
8x=24
X( width): 24/8=3cm
Length= 3x: 3*3=9cm
Area of the rectangle: ( l*w)= 9×3: 27cm²
Use the simple perimeter formula.
P = 2L + 2W
P = 2(9) + 2(5)
P = 19 + 10
P = 29ft
Therefore 29ft of fencing will be needed.
