Best Answer

Use the equation for the area of a rectangle:A = lw (area = length x width)

Call the width "w", then the length will be "w+6". In the previous equation, replace the letters you know - in this case, all of them - and you get:

2808 = w(w+6)

Solve this equation. Since you have a quadratic equation, you'll get two solutions; one will have negative numbers, so you keep only the solution where "w" is positive.
