Question

The perimeter of a rectangular garden is 292 feet. If the width of the garden is 67 feet, what is its length?

Answer 1

79 is the length because
292-2(67)= 158
158/2 = 79

Answer 2

Perimeter = 2 * length + 2 * width

292 = 2*67 + 2x   where x = the length

2x = 292 - 2*67 = 158

x = 158/2 =  79 feet

Length is 79 feet
