    Length = 12 ft

    Width = 2 ft

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Formula for Perimeter is

    P = 2 (l+b)

    Here P = 28 ft Given

    28=2 (l+b)

    l+b=14 - - - (A)

    Let length = l and width = b

    l=6b (Given)

    Putting those values in the formula A

    6b+b=14

    7b=14

    b=2

    Hence l=6b=6 (2) = 12
