Answer:

LENGTH= 16 and WIDTH= 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of rectangle be l

and, its width be b

So, according to question

l = b+3

and,

2(l+b)=58

[We know that perimeter of a rectangle= 2(l+b)]

Substituting l=b+3 in 2nd equation

2(b+3+b)=58

2b+3=58/2

2b+3=29

2b=29-3=26

b=26/2

b= 13

So, l=b+3

l= 13+3=16

Hence the dimensions are 16 and 13
