Question

The perimeter of Raul's picture frame is 108 centimeters. The length of the picture frame is 18 centimeters. What is the width of the picture frame?

Answer 1

Perimeter of a rectangle= 2(length)+2(width)

Data:
Perimeter=108 cm
length=18 cm

therefore:
108 cm=2(18 cm)+2(width)
108 cm=36 cm+2 (width)
2 width=108 cm -36 cm=
2 width=72 cm
width=72cm/2
width=36 cm

Answer: the width of the picture frame would be 36 cm.
