Question

A rectangle has a length of 8.3cm and a permimeter of 22.4 cm. Enter the widty of the rectangle, in decimal form, in the box.​

Answer 1

the width is 2.9

Step-by-step explanation:the perimeter is found by L+W+L+W. Each L is going to be the same length and each width is going to be the same length since its a rectangle.

Double the length. 8.3+8.3= 16.6

Then subtract that from the perimeter. 22.4-16.6= 5.8

Then divide 5.8 as that is the total of the two missing sides. 5.8/2= 2.9

Then 2.9 is your answer. Hope that helps.
