We know that a triangle has three sides, all the same length (its equilateral, after all)

The equation to find the length of each side is

Perimeter divided by 3

or in this case

48.6 divided by 3=16.2cm (don't forget the unit)

Hope that helps :)

Hey there,
Equilateral Triangle means that all 3 sides have the same and equal length.
3 side = 48.6 cm
1 side = 48.6 / 3 
          = 16.2 cm

Hope this helps :))
