A rectangular field is fully enclosed with 218 meters of fencing. The length of the field is
1 answer:
The length and width of a rectangular field fully enclosed with 218 metes fencing are 63 meters and 46 meters respectively.
The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of the whole four sides. Therefore, the perimeter of a rectangle is defined as follows:
where
l = length
w = width
perimeter = 218 meters
The length of the field is 17 meters longer than the width, w. Therefore, the length is defined as follows:
The length and the width can be calculated as follows:
218 = 2(l + w)
218 = 2(17 + w + w)
218 = 34 + 4w
218 - 34 = 4w
184 = 4w
divide both sides by 4
w = 184 / 4
w = 46 meters
length = 17 + 46
length = 63 meters
