Length (L): 2w + 6

width (w): w

Perimeter (P) = 2L + 2w

               228 = 2(2w + 6) + 2(w)

               228 = 4w + 12 + 2w

               228 = 6w + 12

               216 = 6w

                36 = w

Length (L): 2w + 6   = 2(36) + 6   = 72 + 6   = 78

Answer: width=36 ft, length = 78 ft
