Question 79986
Hello there,

Perimeter of square (a rectangle is a square BTW) = sum of all sides

Let w be width.

So width = w and length = 2 + w since length is 2 inches longer than w.

Perimeter of square = w + (2 + w) + w + (2 + w)  <--- There are 2 lengths and 2 widths in a square.

4w + 4 = 46

Find w and that's your width. Length is 2 + w so just add 2 to width and you have your answer in inches.
