Question

The perimeter of a parallelogram is 12 ft and its length is 3 ft. The length of the other side is _____ ft.

Answer 1

The other side of it is 3 feet because 3+3+3+3 is 12

Answer 2

Perimeter = 2* length + 2 * width
12 feet = 2* 3 feet + 2 * width
2 * width =12 feet -2* 3 feet
2 * width =6 feet
width = 3feet
