Question

The area of a rectangle is 75 square feet, and the length is 25 feet. What is the perimeter?

Answer 1

75ft.

Explanation:

What you do is subtract two 25s from the area (because there are two sides for length) which gives you 25. The width would be half of that which is 12.5. Then add two widths (12.5+12.5=25), and add that to two lengths (25+25=50). The answer is 75ft as well. Please tell me if I'm wrong.

Answer 2

56 feet

Explanation:

75/25=3 feet

this is another side.
