Let the width of the rectangle be x meters. Since the length is 5m more than twice the width, the length is 2x + 5 meters. The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula P = 2(length + width). Substituting the given values, we have 100 = 2(2x + 5 + x), which simplifies to 100 = 6x + 10. Solving for x, we get x = 15. Therefore, the width is 15m and the length is 35m.
