What are the dimensions of a table that has a perimeter of 7.8 meter when 4 times the length equals 9 times the width?

Since the perimeter is 7.8 meters, you know that the length plus the width is half that, because P = 2(L+W). So, L+W = P/2 = 3.9 meters.
But you also know (from the problem statement) that 4L = 9W.
Another way of writing that one is L = 9W/4.
So, you can substitute 9W/4 for L in the first equation. That gives us
9W/4 + W = 3.9
Multiply both sides of the equation by 4, which gives us
9W + 4W = 15.6
13W = 15.6
W = 1.2
Since L + W = 3.9, we know that L + 1.2 = 3.9, which means L = 2.7.

9 square meter equals how many cm?
This question cannot be answered in a sensible way. A square metre is a measure of area, with dimensions [L2]. A centimetre is a measure of length, with dimensions [L]. Basic dimensional analysis teaches that you cannot convert between measures with different dimensions without additional information.

How many meter in square meter?
a square meter equals 1m x 1m. None. "meters" and "square meters" are measuring different things. (one is length , one is area) So you're asking how many apples make an orange..the question itself is in error.
What is the perimeter of a 4 meter by 1 meter rectangle?

What is longer 1 sq meter or 1 meter?
The perimeter of 1 sq meter is 4 meters, which is 4 times the length of 1 meter. However, squared lengths (sq meter, sq foot) are not measurements of length, they are measurements of area. The shortest distance to cross 1 sq meter is the same as 1 meter, and the shortest distance to cover 1 sq meter is the length it takes to displace the perimeter.
What are the dimensions of a square with an area of 1m2?
That's very easy. The dimensions of a square with an area of A = 1 m² is 1 meter in length and 1 meter in width.
Why is perimeter called perimeter?
Because From the Latin/Greek root Peri, comes from the word around/surround. Meter was thrown at the end of it so it would literally mean surrounding meter or length. Thus we have Perimeter =]
What are the dimensions of a rectangle that has an area of 600 square cm and a perimeter of 1 meter?

What is the length of each side if a rectangle has the perimeter of one meter?
Each side is 0.25m
What is the perimeter of 55 meter square?
The area doesn't tell you the dimensions or the perimeter. It doesn't even tell you the shape. The shortest perimeter that could enclose that area would be a circle. The shortest perimeter with straight sides would be a square. If it's a rectangle, then there are an infinite number of them, all with different dimensions and different perimeters, that all have the same area.
