Question

Mrs. Long keeps a garden in her backyard. The garden is in the shape of a rectangle. The garden is 27 feet wide. If the perimeter of the garden is 200 feet, what is the length of Mrs. Long’s garden

Answer 1

so Area = length x width

Area = 450, width = 9

450 = 9 x length

divide 450 by 9, and you have the length.

Perimeter = length + length+ 9 + 9

and you got your perimeter!
