Question

What is the perimeter of a rectangle is 154 feet. the length of the rectangle is 55 feet. what is the width of the rectangle? thank you so ,much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

Perimeter= (2 x Length) + (2 x width)
Do to find width:
Width= perimeter - (2 x length)
So now substitute in an equation
W= 154 - (55 x 2)
W= 154-110= 44
Remember 44 would equal the width when it is multiplied by 2. Now you have to divide by 2 to get the original.

Answer is 22
