Question

The length and width of a rectangle are 1/6 inches and 3/8 inches. What is the perimeter (in inches) of the rectangle?

Answer 1

Answer:

1 1/12inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Length = 1/6 inches

Width = 3/8 inches

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 (Length + Width)

substitute

P = 2(1/6 + 3/8)

P = 2(4+9/24)

P=  2(13/24)

P = 26/24

P = 1 2/24

P = 1 1/12inches

hence the perimeter of the triangle is 1 1/12inches
