Question

The perimeter of a rectangular plot of land

is 46.4m. If the width of the plot is 7.4m.
what is its length?
A. 15.8m
B. 8.8m
C. 13.6m
D. 9.2 m​

Answer 1

A. 15.8

Explanation:

First the perimeter of a rectangle = 2 (L +W)

So; 46.4 = 2(L + 7.4)

46.4 = 2L + 14.8

2L = 46.4 - 14.8

2L = 31.6

L =15.8
