Answer:

  • Length = 28 meters
  • Width = 4 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the width of the rectangle is x. That means that the length of the rectangle is 7x which is 7 times as long as it is wide.

Perimeter of a rectangle:

= Length + length  + Width + Width

Therefore:

7x + 7x + x + x = 64

16x = 64

x = 64/16

x = 4 meters

Length is 7 times as long:

= 4 * 7

= 28 meters
