Answer:
width = 10 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
the ratio of width to length is 2 : 5 = 2x : 5x ( x is a multiplier )
the perimeter (P) of a rectangle is calculated as
P = 2 × width + 2 × length
given P = 70 then
2(2x) + 2(5x) = 70
4x + 10x = 70
14x = 70 ( divide both sides by 14 )
x = 5
Then
width = 2x = 2 × 5 = 10 cm and length = 5x = 5 × 5 = 25 cm

Consecutive numbers. X
X+1
X+2
Add them together. 3x + 3 = 33 + x
-3 -3
3x = 30+ x
-x. -x
2x = 30
X = 15
