The length of a rectangle is 11 in. longer than its width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 86 in.

1 answer:

4 0

P = 2(L + W)
P = 86
L = W + 11

86 = 2(W + 11 + W)
86 = 2(2W + 11)
86 = 4W + 22
86 - 22 = 4W
64 = 4W
64/4 = W
16 = W

L = W + 11
L = 16 + 11
L = 27 <====

2/3 is what percent of 1/4?

saveliy_v [14]

So if we take 1/4 to be the 100%, what is 2/3 in percentage off of it then?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
\frac{1}{4}&100\\\\
\frac{2}{3}&p
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\frac{1}{4}}{\frac{2}{3}}=\cfrac{100}{p}\implies \cfrac{1}{4}\cdot \cfrac{3}{2}=\cfrac{100}{p}\implies \cfrac{3}{8}=\cfrac{100}{p}
\\\\\\
p=\cfrac{8\cdot 100}{3}\implies p=\cfrac{800}{3}\implies p=266\frac{2}{3}\implies p\approx 266.\overline{66}$

yes, is a large value, because 2/3 is indeed larger than 1/4, more than twice as large.
