Question

The perimeter of a triangle is 37.5 yards. Two of the sides measure 12.125 yards. Find the third side.

Answer 1

12.125 + 37.5 =49.625

Explanation:

i say this because multiplying and dividing make 0 sense

Answer 2

Let's denote the third side of the triangle as "x".

We know that the perimeter of a triangle is the sum of its three sides, so we can write an equation:

12.125 + 12.125 + x = 37.5

Simplifying the left side, we get:

24.25 + x = 37.5

Subtracting 24.25 from both sides, we get:

x = 13.25

Therefore, the third side of the triangle measures 13.25 yards.
