The length of a rectangle is twice its width. The perimeter is 60 ft. Find its area.In the form of a paragraph, explain in complete sentences the steps necessary to find the area. Include a diagram of the rectangle, the steps used to solve for the area, and the final answer in your explanation.

Respuesta :

The area is 200 because 10 doubled is 20, making the length twice the width while still adding up too 60. I got twenty by dividing 60, the perimeter, by three. The length times the width gets me to the final answer 20.
