Question

The perimeter of the kitchen is 528 inches if the width of the kitchen is 120 inches what is the length of the kitchen

Answer 1

Answer: 144 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To solve this problem you must remember the formula for calculate the perimeter of a rectangle, which is shown below:

$P=2l+2w$

Where $l$ is the lenght and $w$ is the width.

2. You know the perimeter and the width, then you can solve for the length, as following:

$P-2w=2l\\l=\frac{P-2w}{2}\\l=\frac{(528in)-(2*120in))}{2}\\l=144in$
