Answer: The width of the playing field = 45 ft
length of playing fiels = 86ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Perimeter of rectangular field is given as 2 ( L+ b)
Let the width be represented as x
such that the length = 41 ft longer than the width be x+ 41
To find the length and breadth
Step 2
Perimeter = 2( L+ b)= 2l + 2b
Perimeter = 2 (x+41 ) + 2 x = 262
2x + 82 + 2x= 262
4x+ 82= 262
4x= 262 - 82
4x= 180
x= 180/4
x= 45
width= 45 ft
length = x+ 41= 45+ 41= 86ft
