Question

The perimeter of a rectangle is 116 inches.

Answer 1

The length is 48 inches and width is 10 inches.

Further explanation:

Let L be the length of rectangle and

W be the width of the rectangle

Then

$2L+2W=116\\and\\L=2W+28$

Putting L=2W+28 in first equation

$2L+2W=116\\2(2W+28)+2W=116\\4W+56+2W=116\\6W=116-56\\6W=60\\W=\frac{60}{6}\\W=6\ inches$

Now,

$L=2W+28\\L=2(10)+28\\L=20+28\\L=48\ inches$

Hence the length is 48 inches and width is 10 inches.
