Question

Von has a rectangular workroom with a perimeter of 26 feet. The lenght of the workroom is 6 feet. What is the width of vons workroom

Answer 1

Let "l" be the length and "b" be the width of rectangle

Now the perimeter of Rectangle = 2(l+b)
26=2(l+b)

Hence l+b = 13

but l=6

hence b=7

Hence Width=7 Feet

Answer 2

Answer:

7 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w be the width of the given rectangle,

Given,

The length of the rectangle = 6 feet,

Perimeter of the rectangle = 26 feet,

We know that,

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 ( Length + width )

$26 = 2 ( 6 + w )$

$13 = 6 + w$

$\implies w = 7$

Hence, the width of the rectangle is 7 feet.
