= 8/9 * 3/7

= (8*3)/(9*7)
multiply numerators; multiply denominators

= 24/63
simplify

= 8/21

The length of the rectangular tennis court at wimbledon is 6 feet longer than twice the width. if the court's perimeter is 240 f

KATRIN_1 [288]

Length (L): 2w + 6

width (w): w

Perimeter (P) = 2L + 2w

240 = 2(2w + 6) + 2(w)

240 = 4w + 12 + 2w

240 = 6w + 12

228 = 6w

38 = w

Length (L): 2w + 6 = 2(38) + 6 = 76 + 6 = 82

Answer: width = 38 ft, length = 82 ft
