Question

The perimeter of a rectangle is 48 in. if the length is twice the width, what is the length of the rectangle?
a.64 in.
b.16 in.
c.8 in.
d.4 in.

Answer 1

B. 16 

if the length of each side is 16in, the total length would be 32in.
(16 x 2 = 32)
because the length is equal to twice the width, divide 32 by 2 
(32/2 = 16)

16 + 32 = 48
