Question

7/8 3/8 Find the perimeter of the rectangle pictured above.

Answer 1

The perimter of a rectangle is calculated as,

`P=(1)/(2)(l+w)_{}`

Here,

`\begin{gathered} l=(7)/(8) \\ w=(3)/(8) \end{gathered}`

So, we have,

`P=(1)/(2)((7)/(8)+(3)/(8))=(1)/(2)((10)/(8))=(1)/(2)((5)/(4))=(5)/(8)_{}`
