    Dimension of rectangular playing filed is 53 yards by 115 yards

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The length of rectangular playing filed is 9 yards more than double the width.

    Let us suppose width of rectangular field = x yard

    Width (w) = x yards

    Length (l) = 2x+9

    Perimeter of Rectangular field = 2 (l+w)

    We are given perimeter of rectangular playing filed = 336 yards

    2 (2x+9+x) = 336

    Now we solve for x

    3x+9=168

    3x=159

    x=53 yards

    Width = 53 yards

    Length = 2 (53) + 9 = 115 yards

    Thus, Dimension of rectangular playing filed is 53 yard by 115 yards
