Find the width of a rectangle with a perimeter of 90 and a length of 15.
Solution:
The perimeter of a rectangle is the total length or distance of its boundary on all sides.
The perimeter of a rectangle is a linear measure and has the same linear units of meters, feet, inches, or yards.
Given, length of a rectangle = 15 units.
Perimeter of rectangle = 90 units.
We have to find the width of the rectangle.
Perimeter = 2(Length + Width)
90 = 2(15 + Width)
15 + Width = 90/2
15 + Width = 45
Width = 45 - 15
Width = 30 units.
Therefore, the width is 30 units.
Find the width of a rectangle with a perimeter of 90 and a length of 15.
Summary:
The width of a rectangle with a perimeter of 90 and a length of 15 is 30 units.
