Question

The length of a rectangle is 17 meters and the width is 12 meters. What is the perimeter of the rectangle? Do not include units in your answer.

Answer 1

We have that the perimeter is the addition of all the sides of the rectangle, so we have that

$\begin{gathered} p=2\cdot l+2\cdot w \\ p=2\cdot17+2\cdot12 \\ p=34+24=58 \end{gathered}$
