Question

The rectangular playground in Tim's school is three times as long as it is wide. The area of the playground is 75 square meters. What is the perimeter of the playground?

Answer 1

The Length of the play ground is 15 meter. The width is 5 meters. 15x5=75 and since 15 is 3x larger than 5 they should be the numbers we are looking for here.

So 15+15+5+5= 40 the perimeter of the playground should be 40 meters.

I hope this helps!
