Answer 2

If your length is x, than your width must be (x - 4).
x+x + (x -4) + (x - 4) = 120

4x - 8 = 120
4x +8 = + 8
4x = 128
4x/4 = 128/8
x = 32

Your length is 32, which means your width must at least be 28. It could be more, but it can't be less.

Answer 3

Your length and your width could both be bigger, but the width is at least 28.
