Question 771042: Juan would like to hang some rope lighting around the perimeter of his room. His room is in the shape of a rectangle with an area of 24 square meters. Juan knows the length of his room is 6 meters. What is the width of Juan's room? How long should the rope lighting be so that it wraps around the perimeter of his room?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Area of rectangle = width x length
24 = width x 6
width = 24 ÷ 6
width = 4 m
Perimeter = 6 + 4 + 6 + 4
Perimeter = 20 m
