Question

The perimeter of a living room is 68 feet.if the length of the living room is 18 feet what is the width of the living room

Answer 1

the perimeter of a cuadrilateral is 2L+2W=68 where L is the length of the room

since L= 18 feet

we will have that

2(18)+2W=68

then

W=(68-36)/2= 32/2=16

Therefore, the width of the living room is 16 feet.
