Let b = width
l = length
Then, l = 2b - 2 ----------(i)
and, Perimeter = 86 cm
=> 2(l+b) = 86
=> 2b - 2 + b = 86/2
=> 3b = 43 +2
=> b = 45/3 = 15
=> b = 15
Putting the value of b in equation(i)
And, l = 2×15 - 2
= 30-2
= 28
Hence, length = 28 cm
width = 15 cm

If 13% of the 250 million adult Americans live in poverty, how many adult Americans live in poverty?
likoan [24]

If 13% of 100 is 13, than 13% of 100 million is 13 million. And multiplying two on both sides, we get that 13% of 200 million is 26 million. If we take it the other way, we get that 13% of 50 million is 6.5 million. As 6.5 million + 25 million is 31.5 million, this is our answer.
