![Check Mark](/static/check-mark.png)
Answer to Problem 12P
The length of Jen’s garden is 9 m.
The length of Leo’s garden will be 12 m.
Explanation of Solution
Given information: Leo’s garden 6 m wide and area of Jens garden is equal to Leo’s garden and 8 m wide. Length of the Leo’s garden is 3 m long.
Sketch: first make sketch of rectangle for Leo’s and Jens
Consider x m long of Jens’s garden, then Leo’s garden will be
The shape of gardens is rectangular with same area,
Open the parenthesis and simplify,
Therefore the length of Jens’s garden is 9 m and the Leo’s garden will be,
The length of Leo’s garden will be 12 m.
