    Let the width be x

    Thus the length is 2x

    Thus the perimeter (which needs to be fenced) is x + 2x + x + 2x = 6x

    Thus 6x = 108

    Thus x = 108/6 = 18

    Thus the width is 18 and the length is 36

    Thus B is the correct answer.

    The Answer is B.

    the ends will be 18ft.

    The sides will be 36ft.

    So there are two sides 18ft long and two that are 36ft. Add 4 sides together and you get 108ft.
