2 [ L + W ] = 180
2 [ 36 + W ] = 180
36 + W = 90
W = 54 m
L = 36 m

Part 1:
The perimeter of a rectangular piece of land is 180 meters.
If the length of the rectangle is 36 meters,
then the width of the rectangle is 54 meters.
Part 2:
What if instead it is known that the length is 36 meters more than the width?
w + w + 36 = 90
The length and the width are 63 meters and 27 meters respectively.

Prob 1
2L + 2W = 2(L + W) = 180 meters
L + W = 90 meters
since
W = 90 meters - L
L = 36
W = 90 =36 = 54 meter
Prob 2
L + W = 90
L = 36 + W
36 + 2W = 90
2W = 54
W = 27

=(180-72)/2=54
36 x 54
2(w+w+36)=180 >>4w=180-72=108 w=27
27+27+63+63=180
27 x 63
