Question

The perimeter of a rectangular parking lot is 354 m . If the width of the parking lot is 83 m , what is its length?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Formula for perimeter = (2 * length) + (2* width) = Perimeter

2l + (83 * 2) = 354

2l + 166 = 354

2l = 354 - 166

2l = 188

l = 188/2

l = 94 m

Answer 2

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula P = 2(L + W), where P is the perimeter, L is the length, and W is the width.

We know that the perimeter of the parking lot is 354 m, and the width of the parking lot is 83 m. We can use this information to find the length of the parking lot.

Substituting the known values into the formula, we get:

354 = 2(L + 83)

Simplifying the equation:

354 = 2L + 166

Subtracting 166 from both sides:

188 = 2L

Dividing both sides by 2:

L = 94

The length of the parking lot is 94 m.
