Question

A rectangular room has an area of 120 square feet. a. The length of the room is 15 feet. Find the perimeter of the room. The perimeter of the room is feet.

Answer 1

Since the area is 120 ft^2, and we know the length of the room is 15 ft, we can calculate the width.

120/15 = 8

To find the perimeter, we use the following formula

2l + 2w = P

2 (15) + 2 (8) = 46 ft
