SIDE LENGTH OF TRIANGLE: 2.14 inches
SIDE LENGTH OF HEXAGON: 6 inches
To solve this problem, we know that the shapes have equal sides as it states “equilateral triangle”. A triangle has 3 sides and a hexagon has 6 sides. We are told the perimeters are the same so you can set their perimeters equal to each other to solve for x. You would get this : 3(1.4x + 2) = 6(0.5x +2)
With basic algebra you would get x= 5
Then you substitute that value into the length sides of the triangle and hexagon. For the triangle you would approx get 2.14 inches and for the hexagon 6 inches

Quantity of paint left = gallons
Solution:
Quantity of yellow paint = gallons
Quantity of green paint = gallons
Quantity of blue paint = gallons
Quantity of paint used = gallons of each paint
Quantity of paint left = gallons of each paint
Quantity of paint left =
Taking LCM for 5, 6, 8, we get LCM = 120
Hence, Mark will have gallons of paint left after painting the mural.
