Question

33. The perimeter of a room is 22m.lf the length of the room is 6.5m, what is its width?

Answer 1

The formula for perimeter is 2(Length) + 2(width)

Fill in the known information:

22 = 2(6.5)+ 2(width)

Simplify:

22 = 13 + 2(width)

Subtract 13 from both sides:

9 = 2(width)

Divide both sides by 2:

Width = 4.5m
