P = 2L + 2W
120 = 2(W + 10) + 2W
120 = 4W + 20
100 = 4W
? = W
120 = 2(W + 10) + 2W
120 = 4W + 20
100 = 4W
? = W

Hi Mrs. Sue... I'm still confused with the final answer. Can you make it more simple for me to understand. Thanks.

100/4 = 25
The width is 25.
The length is 25 + 10 = 35
120 = (2 * 25) + (2 * 35)
120 = 50 + 70
