L=length; W=width; P=perimeter
\n" ); document.write( "P=2(L+W) Divide each side by 2.
\n" ); document.write( "P/2=L+W Subtract L from each side.
\n" ); document.write( "(P/2)-L=W Plug in values.
\n" ); document.write( "(24m/2)-7m=W
\n" ); document.write( "12m-7m=W
\n" ); document.write( "5m=W ANSWER: The width is 5 meters.\r
