Question

The width of a rectangle is 8 inches and the perimeter is 26 inches. What is the length of the rectangle?

Answer 1

Length of the rectangle is 5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

• Step 1: Perimeter of the rectangle = 26 in and width = 8 in. Find the length.

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(length + width)

26 = 2(length + 8)

13 = length + 8

length = 13 - 8

Length = 5 in
