Question

You may need the formulasArea=L-W and/or Perimeter=2L+2W,where L-length and W=width.The length of a room is 2/3 feet and the width is21/2 feet. What is the perimeter of the room?Write answer in simplest form.29

Answer 1

As you say well, the perimeter (P) of the room (actually a rectangle), is

$P=2L+2W=2(\frac{2}{3}ft)+2(\frac{21}{2}ft)=\frac{4}{3}ft+21ft=\frac{67}{3}ft$
