<span>A = l x w
Since
l = 3w
Substitute the l with 3w
The formula will be
A = 3w + w
A = 4w
An example:
The
given known values are: Length of 4 cm Width is unknown Perimeter is 34
cm Find the dimensions of the rectangle. Since the geometric formula
for perimeter is: </span>
P= 2 (l + w)
L = 2w – 4 cm
W =?
Derivation and solution:
34 = 2 (2w - 4) + 2w <span>
34 = 4w – 8 + 2w</span>
42 = 6w 42/6 = w
W = 7 cm
34 = 2l + 2(7)
34 = 2l + 14
2l = 34 – 14
2l = 20
L = 20/2
L = 10 cm<span> <span>

Since 3 squared is 9 and 4 squared is 16, the square root of 13 will fall somewhere between 3 and 4
Five and sixteen tenths, or five point sixteen
<span>20 hundreds is equal to 2 thousands, however 20 hundreths is not equal to 2 thousandths. 2 in the 0,2 is 100 times greater than 2 in 0,002.
