I think you just put 20 in the blank in order for it to equal

Answer:
- Length = 28 meters
- Width = 4 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume the width of the rectangle is x. That means that the length of the rectangle is 7x which is 7 times as long as it is wide.
Perimeter of a rectangle:
= Length + length + Width + Width
Therefore:
7x + 7x + x + x = 64
16x = 64
x = 64/16
x = 4 meters
Length is 7 times as long:
= 4 * 7
= 28 meters
