Answer:

The area is 243 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of all four sides.

Two of the sides represent the length and two represent the width.

Given what we know and using l to represent the length and w to represent the width.

l + l + w + w = 72ft

or more concisely

2l + 2w = 72ft

The four sides all add together to equal 72ft

We also know that

l = 3w

This says the length is equal to 3 times the width

we have two unknowns, l and w, and now we have two related equations so we can solve for l and w.

The first thing we will do is replace l with 3w in the first equation because the second equation tells us that l is the same as 3w. Making the replacement gives us

2(3w) + 2w = 72ft

2 times 3w is 6w

6w + 2w = 72ft

6w plus 2w is 8w

8w = 72ft

Now if we divide both sides by 8 we maintain the equality since we are making the same change to both sides

8w / 8 = 72ft / 8

8w divided by 8 is 1w or just w and 72ft divided by 8 is 9ft

w = 9ft

So now we know the width is 9ft

if we now replace w with 9 in one of our original equations we can solve for l, let's use l = 3w

l = 3(9ft)

3 times 9 is 27 so

l = 27ft

So the length is 27ft which is 3 times the width of 9ft

The area of a rectangle is length times width or l x w, so

area = 27ft x 9ft

area = 243sqft

ft means feet and sqft means square feet
