The width of a rectangle is 1.9 feet. The perimeter is 7.4 feet. What is the length?

dimaraw [331]

Answer:2.8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

length(l)=?

breadth(b)= 1.9 feet

perimeter(p)=7.4 feet

we know,

p=2(l+b)

7.4=2(l+1.9)

7.4=2l+3.8

2l=7.4-3.8 (changing side and bringing 3.8 to 7.4 it gets -3.8)

l=3.6/2

l=2.8 feet

Hence,length is 2.8 feet
