The perimeter of a rectangular floor is 240 feet. Find the dimensions of the floor if the length is three times the width
The floor has a length of feet and a width of feet.

Respuesta :

Answer:

  length: 90 ft

  width: 30 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of length and width is half the perimeter, so is 120 ft. The length is 3/(3+1) = 3/4 of the sum, so is (3/4)(120 ft) = 90 ft. The width is 120 ft -90 ft = 30 ft.

The floor has a length of 90 feet and a width of 30 feet.
