Question

The perimeter of a rectangle is 14 11/12 feet.if the length is 4 3/8 feet what ia the width

Answer 1

10 3/4

Explanation:

first we would set up the equation as 14 11/2=2(4 3/8) + 2x

so to simplify it would be 39/2= 70/8 + 2x

then 156/8=70/8+2x

then you just solve 86/8 = 2x

then you get 10 3/4
