Question

The sides of a rectangle are in the ratio 2:5. If the longer side of the rectangle is 25.5

Answer 1

Answer: The width is 10.2 inches, the perimeter is 71.4, the area is 260.1.

Step-by-step explanation: So first i divided 25.5/5 which equals 5.1. The ratio is 2:5 so I know that i have to multiply 5.1x2 which is 10.2, thats how you get the width. The perimeter I just did 25.5+25.5+10.2+10.2 =71.4. For the area I just multiplied 25.5x10.2=260.1.
