To find the width, first, convert the length from feet to yards: 24 feet is equal to 8 yards (since 1 yard = 3 feet). The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2(length + width). Given that the perimeter is 74 yards, we can set up the equation: 74 = 2(8 + width). Solving for width gives us 74 = 16 + 2(width), so 2(width) = 58, leading to a width of 29 yards.
Just add the four sides.
16 feet
16 feet.

36 feet = 12 yards
Just add the four sides.
Length + width = half of perimeter so width = p/2 - length ie (22-12) 10 yards.
16 feet
16 feet
16 feet.
Length + width = ½ perimeter, ie 42 yards or 126 feet. L = 6 W so w = 126/7 = 18 feet and length is 108 feet ie 36 yards.
Width = 16 feet Length = 38 feet

the perimeter of a rectangular rug is 40 ft. the length is 2 ft longer than the width. find the dimensions
Change the perimeter to feet and let the width be x. Perimeter = 2(22+x) = 76 feet 44+2x = 76 2x = 76-44 2x = 32 x = 16 So the width is 16 feet and the length is 22 feet Check: 16+16+22+22 = 76 feet
perimeters will always be length so we have units of lenght such as mm, inch, feet etc. NOT area, so no square feet or square yards etc.
36 feet = 12 yards
