Question

The perimeter of a rectangular field is 346m.

If the length of the field is 97m, what is its width?

Answer 1

76m

Explanation:

Since you know that two of the sides equal 97m, both of those sides equal 194m.

Then you can find the length of the other two sides: 346(total length of all sides) - 194 = 152(sum of both of the other sides)

Divide the sum of the unknown sides (152) by 2 to find out what those sides equal (76)

Answer 2

346- (97x2) = 152 divided by 2 = 76
