Question

What is the perimeter of a rectangle with a length of 7 3/4 inches and a width of 4 1/3 inches

Answer 1

24 1/6 or 145/6 inches

Explanation:

( 7 3/4 inches x 2) + (4 1/3 inches x 2)= 145/6 which is 24 1/6

Answer 2

Multiply the length by 2, then multiply the width by 2 and then add them together.

7 3/4 x 2 = 15 1/2

4 1/3 x 2 = 8 2/3

15 1/2 = 31/2

8 2/3 = 26/3

Find common denominator:

31/2 x 3 = 93/6

26/3 x 2 = 52/6

93/6 + 52/6 = 145/6

145/6 = 24 1/6 inches.
