A rectangular room is 3 meters longer than it is wide, and its perimeter is 26 meters. Find the dimension of the room. The length is : meters and the width is meters.

Sagot :

Perimeter is the sum of all 4 walls.

Divide the perimeter in half for the total of the width  + the length:

26/2 = 13 meters

Subtract the difference in length:

13 - 3 = 10

Divide by 2 walls:

10/2 = 5

The width is 5 metes.

The length is the 5 metes + the 3 meter difference = 5 +3 = 8 meters.

The length is 8 meters and the width is 5 meters.
