The perimeter of a rectangle is 66 m. the length is 1 m more than three times the width. find the dimensions of the rectangle.

P = Perimeter

L = Length

W = Width

L = 1 + 3W (1m more than 3 times the Width)

W = W

Rectangle has 4 sides

2 (1+3W) + 2W = 66

2+6W+2W=66

2+8W=66

8W=64

W=8

Plug 8 in L to find Length side

L = 1+3 (8)

L = 1+24

L=25

Check**

2 (L) + 2 (W) = 66

2 (25) + 2 (8) = 66

50 + 16 = 66

66 = 66
