Answer:

25 width and 125 length

Step-by-step explanation:

50+50+100+100 is equal to 25+25+125+125

but 50 x 100 is not equal to 25 x 125

there are many other ways you could have written it as well

Length: 40 yd, Width: 130 yd

Dimension's of parking lot: 70 × 100

For this area:             L × W = 70 × 100 = 7000 yd²

To find dimensions producing same perimeter but smaller area. One dimension has to be too small and one too big.
