For a rectangular fish pond,its width is 6 meters shorter than the length and the length is twice as long as the width,then what is the perimeter of this fish pond?
Solution:
length - width = 2 width - width = width = 6 m
perimeter = 2 x ( length + width)
= 2 x 3 width
= 2 x 3 x 6
= 36 ( m )
So,the perimeter of the fish pond is 36 meters.
