p = 2l + 2w
P=Perimeter
L=Length
W=Width

Hints given are P= 76, L=20 so 2L=40

76=40+2w
76-40=2w
36=2w
18=w

The formula of a perimeter of a rectangle:

P = 2(w + l)

We have P = 76 cm and l = 20 cm.

Substitute:

2(w + 20) = 76       <em>use distributive property</em>

(2)(w) + (2)(20) = 76

2w + 40 = 76     <em>subtract 40 from both sides</em>

2w = 36       <em>divide both sies by 2</em>

w = 18

<h3>Answer: the width = 18 cm</h3>

What is 5 7/8 minus 11/4
aksik [14]
First you need to simplify it so

5 7/8 = 5x8=40  40+7=47 so at the moment you have 47/8
then do
11/4 is fine so find the common denominator
in this case its 8 so   4x2=8 and then 11x2=22 so you have 47/8-22/8
which = 25/8 then you simplify and you get <em><u>3 1/8</u></em>
