Let's look at the formula to solve the perimeter.
2l+2w=98
We know that l=6w
Let's put that into the equation.
2(6w)+2w=98
12w+2w=98
14w=98
98÷14=7
So the width is 7. Let's find the length.
Since the length is six times the width: 7×6= 42
So, the length is 42 while the width is 7. We need to find the area.
42×7=294
The area is 294 m².
