Answer:

l = 33 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let length be l.

Width, b = 2l-1

Perimeter of the room, P = 196

We know that the perimeter of the rectangle is given by :

P = 2(l+b)

196=2(l+2l-1)

98=3l-1

Adding 1 both sides.

98+1=3l-1+1

3l=99

l = 33 feet

So, the length of the room is 33 feet.
