Question

the length of a rectangle is twice it's width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 48 cm, find it's length and width.

Answer 1

Let L represent the length of the rectangle.

Let W represent the length of the rectangle.

We know that the perimeter of the rectangle is 48cm, which is equal to 2(L + W).

Therefore, L + W = 24cm.

We also know that L = 2W.

Hence, Length = 16cm and Width = 8cm.
