Answer:
length= 1115 inches
width= 545 inches
Explanation:
The perimeter of the rectangular rug is the sum of the lengths of all its sides.
Start by defining the variables that we are going to use throughout our working.
Let the length and the width of the rug be L and W inches respectively.
Perimeter= 2(L +W)
Given that the length is 25 inches more than twice the width,
L= 2W +25 -----(1)
3320= 2(2W +25 +W)
Divide both sides by 2:
1660= 2W +W +25
1660= 3W +25
3W= 1660 -25
3W= 1635
Divide both sides by 3:
W= 1635 ÷3
W= 545
Substitute W= 545 into (1):
L= 2(545) +25
L= 1115
Thus, the length and width of the rug is 1115 and 545 inches respectively.
