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

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

1. Let us determine what the width of the rectangular section is equal to, if from the condition of the problem we know that it is 15 meters less than its length, which is 43 meters. To do this, we find the difference between these values.

43 – 15 = 28 meters.

2. Now, knowing what the length and width of the rectangle are, we can calculate its area by multiplying these measurements by each other.

43 * 28 = 1204 m ^ 2.

3. Let’s define what the perimeter of this section is.

(43 + 28) * 2 = 71 * 2 = 142 meters.

Answer: The area of the site is 1204 m ^ 2, and its perimeter is 142 meters.
