Perimeter of the yard 2(l+b) = 270 feet

One sid length of yard = 25feet

2(25+l) = 270

Divide to each side by 2.

2(25+l)/2 = 270/2

25+l = 135

Subtract 25 from each side.

25-25+l = 135-25

l = 110feet

Yard dmensions are 25feet and 110feet.

Perimeter of the rectangular yard 2(l + b) = 270 feet

Length of yard = 25feet

2(25 + b) = 270

Divide to each side by 2.

25 + b = 270/2

25 + b = 135

Subtract 25 from each side.

b = 135 - 25

b = 110feet.

Dimensions of the yard are 25feet and 110feet.
