Hi there!
If we know the perimeter of the lot, it's pretty easy to find the length and width. Since we know that the lot is a square, we know that all sides are the same. And there are four sides on a square. Using this information, we can get an equation: 60 = x + x + x + x. Then, we need to simplify and solve the equation: 60 = 4x | x = 15 feet. Therefore, the length and width of the lot is 15 feet.
Hope this helps!! :)
If there's anything else that I can help you with, please let me know!
that question doesnt make sense!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, the chances are 3 to 1 in the first question, because there are three pencils and only one pen. In the second box it is a 50-50 chance that you will pick a crayon, because there are equal amounts of colored pencils and crayons in the second box. The numbers that I gave you aren't the fractions though. See if you can go from here.
Every foot is composed of 12 inches. Below is the way to solve the number of inches (n) in 12 ft.
n = (12 ft) x (12 inches / 1 ft) = 144 inches
To determine the number of 2-inch segments, divide 144 inches by 2. The division gives an answer of 72. Thus, there are 72 2-inch segment in 12 ft.
