Question

In a rectangle, the length is five times the width.

Write and simplify the expression of the perimeter.

Answer 1

Answer:The perimeter =12w

Explanation:

Let the width represent W and Length represent L

Length= 5 x width

L=5W

W=W

Since perimeter =2(L+w)

Substitute for L=5w

=2(5w+w)

=2(6w)

=12w
