The length of a rectangle is double its width.
If the rectangle has a perimeter of 48 cm,
find (in cm) its length.

16cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let W be width

Width=W

Length=2W

Perimeter=(Length+Width)×2

48=(2W+W)×2

48=6W

W=8cm

Therefore length is 8×2=16cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be x

Length = 2*x = 2x

Perimeter = 48 cm

2*(length + width) = 48

2*(2x +x ) =48

2*3x = 48

6x = 48

x = 48/6

x = 8

Width =  8cm

length = 2 * 8 = 16cm

the answer is:

the answer is:

to solve the problem, we need to remember the quotient of power property, it's defined by the following relation:

if we have a quotienf of powers that have the same base, we need to keep the same base and subtract the exponent of the denominator power to the exponent of the numerator power.

so, we are given the expression:

then, calculating we have:

hence, the answer is:

have a nice day!
