Answer: 58 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay so this problem looks kinda hard at first but actually its pretty simple.


The perimeter formula is 2l+2w where l is the length and w is the width.

We know what the length is and the whole perimeter.

2(94)+2y=304

188+2y=304

2y=304-188

2y=116

y=58

Lets verify our work!

2(94)+2(58)=304

188 + 116 = 304

Yep and you're done!
