Question

The perimeter of a rectangular field is 74 yards. The length of the field is 27 yards. What is the width in yard of the field

Answer 1

Answer:

width = 10 yds

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter = 2L + 2W

74 = 2(27) + 2W

74 = 54 + 2W

subtract 54 from both sides of the equation:

2W = 20

divide both sides by 2:

W = 10
