Question 927404: The width of a rectangle is 2/3 of its length. If the perimeter is 80 cm find its dimensions
Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
w = (2/3)L
2L + 2w = 80
---
2L + 2w = 80
2L + 2(2/3)L = 80
(6/3)L + (4/3)L = 80
(10/3)L = 80
L = 80*(3/10)
L = 24
w = (2/3)*24
w = 16
---
answer:
L = 24 cm
w = 16 cm
