Question

The perimeter of a rectangle is 24 inches. Find the dimension If the length of the rectangle is 3 inches more than it’s width.

Answer 1

length is 7.5 and width is 4.5

Explanation:

Its given that perimeter of the triangle is 24 units.

The condition is that length is 3 units more than the width.

l=w+3;

Formula for perimeter is 2(l+w).

so ,

2(w+w+3)=24,

2w+3=12,

w=4.5,

l=w+3=7.5

Hence for the given conditions length is 7.5 and width is 4.5.
