A rectangle is 13 cm longer than it is wide. It’s perimeter is 226 cm. Find it’s length and width.

Respuesta :

The length of rectangle is 63cm and width is 50cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

w be the width of rectangle.

According to given statement;

Length = l = w+13

Periemter = P = 226cm

[tex]2(l+w)=226[/tex]

Putting l=w+13

[tex]2(w+13+w)=226\\2(2w+13)=226\\4w+26=226\\4w=226-26\\4w=200[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 4

[tex]\frac{4w}{4}=\frac{200}{4}\\w=50\ cm[/tex]

Length of rectangle = w+13 = 50+13

Length of rectangle= 63 cm

The length of rectangle is 63cm and width is 50cm.
