An architect designs a rectangular flower garden such that the width is exactly two-thirds of the length. If 340 feet of antique picket fencing are to be used to enclose the garden, find the dimensions of the garden

The dimensions of the garden is 102 feet by 68 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the width and length of the garden

The perimeter is represented by the length of the fencing

From the question;

w = 2l/3

The formula for the perimeter is;

P = 2(l + w)

Thus;

340 = 2(l + 2l/3)

170 = (l + 2l/3)

Multiply through by 3

510 = 3l + 2l

5l = 510

l = 102 feet

w = 2/3 * l

w = 2/3 * 102

w = 68 feet
