Question

The ratio of a rectangle's length to its width is 4:3. If the length of the rectangle is 48 inches, what is the perimeter of the rectangle?

Answer 1

Answer:

36 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio is L:W = 4:3 = 48:?

if you divide 48 by 4 you get 12. So now do 12 times 3 to get 36! Whatever you do to one ration do the same to the other, I like to remember it that way.
