Question

What is the value of the remaining variable? P=2L+2W; L=68, W=71

Answer 1

`P=2L+2W`

We know that L = 68 and W = 71. Plug these into our equation above.


`P=2(68)+2(71)`

According to the order of operations, we must multiply first.
2×68 = 136, 2×71 = 142


`P=136+142`


`\boxed{P=278}`
