The length of the rectangle of the piece of land is 43 m, and its width is 15 m less than the length.

The length of the rectangle of the piece of land is 43 m, and its width is 15 m less than the length. Find the perimeter and area of the lot.

Since the width is 15 m less than the length, we find out how much the length is. To do this, subtract 15 from the length, we get
43 – 15 = 28
In order to find out the perimeter, we add all the sides, we get
43 + 28 + 43 + 28 = 142
The perimeter is 142.
In order to find out the area, we multiply the length by the width, we get
43 × 28 = 1204
Area is 1204
Answer: P = 142 m, S = 1204
