Question 345405
Let P = perimeter



So P = a+b+c. 



Since "one side is 10 inches", we know that a=10. 



Because "another side is 1/3 of the perimeter", we know that {{{b=(1/3)P=P/3}}}



Finally, since "the third side is 1/6 of the perimeter", so {{{c=(1/6)P=P/6}}}



So this means that {{{P=10+P/3+P/6}}}. Let me know if this helps.
