Question 947402: The perimeter of the bottom of a rectangular swimming pool is 114 meters. The pool is 37 meters long. How wide is it?
Answer by Zucchini(70)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! First, you add 37 and 37 to get the sum of the lengths. So, it's 74. Now, we subtract 74 from 114 to get the sum of the widths. So, the sum of the widths is 40. Now, we divide it by two to get the width, which is 20. So, the pool is 20 meters wide.
