Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

P = 2L + 2W

Step 2: Solve for L

1. Subtract 2W on both sides:                    P - 2W = 2L
2. Divide 2 on both sides:                           (P - 2W)/2 = L
3. Distribute division:                                   P/2 - W = L
4. Rewrite:                                                    L = P/2 - W
