Question

A painting measures 2.4 feet from left to right. It’s hung in the center of a rectangular wall measuring 20 feet from left to right. What is the distance between the right edge of the painting and the right edge of the wall? Assume that the painting does not tilt.

Answer 1

Answer: 8.8 feet

Explanation:
20-2.4=17.6 feet
That is the length of the wall not counting the painting.
17.6/2=8.8
8.8 is the measurement of one side of the painting to the end of the wall.
