Question

A rug like a rectangle has a width of 3 m . The length of the rug is 2 m greater than its widith . What is the perimeter of the rug in meters

Answer 1

16m

Explanation:

Given data

Width = 3m

Lenght = 2+3= 5m

We know that the expression for perimeter is

P= 2L+2W

Substitute

P= 2*5+ 2*3

P= 10+6

P= 16 m

Hence the perimeter is 16m
