A rectangular barn is to be made out of fence in an open field. The fence must enclose the barn and also split the barn in half, in order to separate the cattle from the chicken. The barn has length l metres and width w metres. An outline of the barn is shown in Figure 2 below.
Given that there is only 270 metres of fence in total,
