s = 2(lw + lh + wh)
Divide each side by 2 : s/2 = lw + lh + wh
Subtract 'lh' from each side: s/2 - lh = lw + wh
Combine the 'w' terms: s/2 - lh = w(l + h)
Divide each side by (l + h): (s/2 - lh) / (l + h) = w
This is a compound interest problem so you cannot use the simple interest formula. Effectively the total amount is being compounded each year by 6%. There is a formula for compound interest but in this simple example you can work this out recursively.
year 1 = 6500
year2 = 6500*1.06 = 6890
year3 = 6890*1.06 = 7303
year4 = 7303*1.06 = 7741..
etc......
year12 = 11604*1.06 = 12338
The answer is 16 if you solve it, because the square root of 64 is 8 and 2 * 8 = 16
