We are given the following equation :


{:\implies \quad \sf P=2L+2w}

And we need to solve for w, so let's start :


{:\implies \quad \sf P=2L+2w}

Now, transpose 2L to LHS ;


{:\implies \quad \sf P-2L=2w}


{:\implies \quad \sf 2w=P-2L}


{:\implies \quad \boxed{\bf{w=((P-2L))/(2)}}}

Hence, Option a) is correct
