Question

Michael made a queen sized quilt that was 8 ft long. Its area was 64 square feet. What was its perimeter?

Answer 1

Because it was 8 feet long and has a 64 sq foot area, it's width is 64/8=8.  Thus, it's perimeter is 2*(8+8), or 32.

Answer 2

the quilt is a square all sides are the same perimeter = sum of the sides 8 x 4= 32 ft is the perimeter hope this helps
