The length of a rectangle is twice the width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 69 units, find the area of the garden.

area = 264.5 unit square

Step-by-step explanation:

let the width of the rectangle be x units then the length would be 2x units

perimeter = 2 (l+b) = 2 (2x+x) = 2 (3x) = 6x

69=6x

x=69/6=11.5units

width is 11.5 units and length is 23 units

area = lxb = 11.5 * 23 = 264.5 units square
