Answer: The length of the rectangle is 13.5 units and the width is 4.5 units

Step-by-step explanation: The perimeter of the rectangle has been given as 36 units. The formula applied to calculate the perimeter is

Perimeter = 2(L + W)

However the details in the question states that the rectangle is three times as long as it is wide. That is, the length is three times it’s width. So if the width is W then the length is 3W.

Therefore, to calculate the perimeter we shall apply the following;

Perimeter = 2(3W + W)

If the perimeter is given as 36 units, then we have;

36 = 2(4W)

We cross multiply and we have

36/2 = 4W

18 = 4W

Divide both sides of the equation by 4

4.5 = W

So the width is calculated as 4.5, hence the length would be 3W which equals 3 x 4.5 and that equals 13.5

Therefore, Length = 13.5 units and Width = 4.5 units

Three consecutive even numbers have a sum where one half of the sum is between 84 and 96
mamaluj [8]

86 *2 = 172

172/3 = 57.33

54 + 56 +58 =168

168/2 =84


56 + 58 +60 = 174

174/2 =87

58 +60 +62 = 180

180/2 = 90

60 +62 +64 = 186

186/2 = 93


62 +64+66 = 192

192/2 = 96


 there are 3 sets of numbers that fall between 84 & 96

 1 set equals 84 and 1 set equals 96

 so if you are counting those there are 5 sets
