Length rectangle = 3cm. longer than its width.
Rectangle perimeter = 50 cm.
find its dimensions?
P = 2L +2w
L= w + 3
P= 50
P = 2L +2w
50 = 2(3+w)+2(w)
50 =6+2w + 2w
4w= 50 - 6
4w = 44
w = 44/4
w = 11
L= 11 +3 = 14
L= 14
Solution:
Length= 14 cm
Width = 11 cm

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: let the width be X
then the length will be x+3
according to the problem
2x+2(x+3)=50
4x=50-6
x=44/4
x=11
# the width is 11 & the length 14
