Question

Blake has to put up a fence around a pet pen which s rectangular. If the width is 23 feet and the perimeter is 114 feet. What is the length of the rectangle?

Answer 1

P = 2(L + W)
P = 114
W = 23

114 = 2(L + 23)
114 = 2L + 46
114 - 46 = 2L
68 = 2L
68/2 = L
34 = L <=== so the length is 34 ft

Answer 2

The length is 4.95 feet, which would be 5 feet if you have to round
