Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = length

Then width = (1/2)x

Perimeter = 2(length) + 2(width) = 54

                  length + width = 27

So, x + (1/2)x = 27

           (3/2)x = 27

                 x = 27(2/3) = 18     (1/2)x = 9

Answer:  length = 18 cm and width = 9 cm
The length is 18 cm and the width is 9cm
