How to find perimeter of a rectangle

Question

How do I add it length 2m10cm 45cm

Answer 1

Hello Rebecca,

The equation to find the perimeter of a rectangle is as follows:

P = 2 (L + W) or P = 2(L) + 2(W) where p equals the perimeter, L equals the length, and W equals the width. Please note: The second equation is the exact same but with the distributive property of math applied. Personally, I prefer using the second equation.

Can you confirm for me whether the length of your rectangle is 2m 10cm and the width 45cm? You can confirm in the comment section by clicking "add comment" and then typing your text.
