Dusty planted a rectangular garden that had a perimeter of 36 yards.?

The length of the garden is 6 feet longer than twice the width. What is the length of the garden in feet?

36 x 3 = 108
108 / 4 = 27
27 x 27 = 729 sq. ft.
24.16' x 30.16' = 728.67 sq. ft.
Your question seems to make a false assumption. Six feet longer them twice the width is not possible. My example proves that. Otherwise I'm willing to yield if you have a qualified solution. Good luck.

perimeter is 2L + 2W

2(W+6) +2W=36
2W + 12 +2W = 36
4W = 24
W = 6
L = W+6 = 6+6 = 12
