A 2 foot wide painting should be centered on a 14 foot wide wall. How many feet (x) should be on each side of the painting?
geniusboy [140]

Divide the length of the wall by 2 to find the center of the wall:14/2 = 7 feet

The center of the painting is 2/2 = 1 foot.

The edge of the wall would be the center of the wall minus the center of the painting:

7 - 1 = 6 feet.

There should be 6 feet on each side of the painting.
