Question

A rectangle has a length of 3.6 in. and a perimeter of 16.8 in.



Enter the width of the rectangle, in decimal form, in the box.

Answer 1

Perimeter (P) = 2Length (L) + 2Width (W)

16.8 = 3.6(2) + 2W

16.8 = 7.2 + 2W

 -7.2   -7.2

-------------------

9.6   =   2W

---         ----

  2           2

 

4.8 = W
