Question 8

The perimeter of a rectangular garden is 252 feet. If the width of the garden is 52 feet, what is its length?

Answer 1

Length = 74 ft (feet)

Answer 2

Length = 74

Explanation:

Perimeter = Length + Length + Width + Width

Perimeter = 2L + 2W

Perimeter: 2L + 2(52) = 252

2L+ 104 = 252

Subtract 104 from both sides

2L = 148

Divide both sides by 2

L = 74
