SOLUTION: Hi,
I tried to do this problem, and I would just like to check with you.
The problem is:
P=2L+2W solve for L
so i subtracted 2W from both sides
and got: P-2W=2L
then i divide

Question 213975: Hi,
I tried to do this problem, and I would just like to check with you.
The problem is:
P=2L+2W solve for L
so i subtracted 2W from both sides
and got: P-2W=2L
then i divided by 2 and got
L=P-2W/2
am i correct? or is there something else that needs to be done?

------------------
Since the numerator has two terms, you need parenthses there.
L = (P-2W)/2
