Question

the width of a rectangle is 8 inches and the length is 5 inches what is the perimeter of the rectangle

Answer 1

To find the perimeter of a rectangle, add the lengths of all the sides. Since the width is 8, we know that two sides have the length of 8, and since the length is 5, two sides have the length of 5. 2(8)+2(5)=26, so the perimeter is 26 inches
