Question

The perimeter of a rectangular lot is 300m, if the width of the lot is 56m what is the length

Answer 1

The width of ectangular lot is w = 56 m.

The formula for the perimeter of rectangle is,

`P=2(l+w)`

Determine the length of the rectangular lot.

`\begin{gathered} 300=2(l+56) \\ l+56=150 \\ l=150-56 \\ =94 \end{gathered}`

Thus, length of rectangular lot is 94 m.
