1. The formula for calculate the perimeter of a rectangle, is:
P=2L+2W
P is the perimeter of the rectangle (P=320 feet).
L is the lenght of the rectangle.
W is the width of the rectangle.

2. The problem says that the length of the rectangle is three times the width, so you have:
</span>
L=3W
3. When you substitute L=3W and P=320, into P=2L+2W, you obtain:
P=2L+2W
320=2(3W)+2W
320=6W+2W
8W=320
W=320/8
W=40 feet
4. The barn forms one end of the rectangle. Therefore the linear feet of fence (x) is:
x=P-W
x=320 feet-40 feet
x=280 feet
<span>
How many linear feet of fence must he buy?
</span>
The answer is: 280 feet
Positive add a positive plus positive equals positive neg plus neg equals neg
5/8 =
2.5/4=
62.5/100=
62.5%
The answer is 5. 30 divide 6=n. In the question it said Fale will run 30 minutes today, and if he can run a lap in 6 minute, you will have to divide to get the answer, which is n or 5.
