    45 units

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The perimeter is equal to 2 (width+length)

    Let the longer side be the length of the rectangle

    2 (2x+3x+3) = 146

    Divide both sides by 2

    2x+3x+3=73

    5x+3=73

    5x=70

    x=14

    The longer side = 3x+3

    substitdude x into the equation

    3 (14) + 3

    = 45 units
