ANSWER

w=48,l=60

EXPLANATION

Let the width of the field be, w , then,

the length of the field will be:

l = 12 + w

The area of a rectangle is

Area = lw

This implies that:

w(12 + w) = 2880

Expand

{w}^{2}  + 12w = 2880

{w}^{2}  + 12w  -  2880 = 0

(x + 60)(x - 48) = 0

This implies that,

w =  - 60 \: w = 48

The dimensions are positive, the width is 48 and the length is 12+48=60
