The perimeter of a sheet of paper is 38 cm. If the width is 8 cm, what is the length of the paper?

Asked by arburns08

Answer (2)

(2•l)+(2•w)=38. (2•l)+8=38. Subtract 8 from both sides which leaves (2•l)=30. Divide by 2 from both sides and that leaves 15.

To find the length of a sheet of paper with a perimeter of 38 cm and a width of 8 cm, we used the perimeter formula for rectangles. By substituting the known values and simplifying, we determined that the length is 11 cm. Therefore, the length of the paper is 11 cm.
