Question 645424: Find the perimeter of a triangle if one side is 16 feet, another side is two-sevenths the perimeter, and the third side is one-third the perimeter. Answer by sachi(548) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! let the perimeter= x
than p=16+2p/7+p/3=(16*21+2p*3+p*7)/21
or 21p=336+13p
or 8p=336
or p=perimeter=336/8=42
