    Perimeter is all sides added up together. So as you don't know a side's length you can put it as x and make an equation.

    x + x + x + 6 + x + 6 = 180

    4x + 12 = 180

    4x = 180 - 12

    4x = 168

    x = 168/4

    x = 42

    as length is 6 feet longer than width length is equal to 42 + 6 = 48 feet
