Answer:

Length = 54 ft.

Width = 50 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle be 'w'.

According to question ,

Length = w + 4

Perimeter = 208 ft.

We know that [tex]perimeter = 2(l + w)[/tex] where l = length & w = width

So,

[tex]2(w + 4 + w) = 208[/tex]

[tex] = > 2(2w + 4) = 208[/tex]

[tex] = > 2w + 4 = \frac{208}{2} = 104 [/tex]

[tex] = > 2w = 104 - 4 = 100[/tex]

[tex] = > w = \frac{100}{2} = 50[/tex]

Width = 50 ft.

=> Length = 50 + 4 = 54 ft.
