You can put this solution on YOUR website! the perimeter of a rectangular photograph is 36cm . the length is 4 cm greater than the width. find the width and the length
----
Perimeter = 2(length + width)
P = 2(L+W)
--------
36 = 2(W + (W+4))
---
18 = 2W + 4
2W = 14
Width = 7 cm
---
Length = W + 4 = 11 cm
