a rectangular shaped parking lot is to have a perimeter of 670 yards. If the width is to be 114 yards, because of a building code, what would the length need to be?

Answer: 221 yards

Explanation:

Perimeter = 2 width + 2 length

Double the given width.

114 × 2 = 228

Subtract from total perimeter

670 - 228 = 442

Divide by 2

442/2 = 221
