If rectangular workroom with a perimeter of 26 feet. The length of workroom is 6 feet. What is the width?
P = 2L + 2W
26 = )2 * 6) + 2W
26 = 12 + 2W
14 = 2W
7 = W
To find the width of the rectangular workroom, we can use the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle: P = 2 × (length + width).
Given that the perimeter of the workroom is 26 feet and the length is 6 feet, we can substitute these values into the formula to get:
26 = 2 × (6 + width)
Next, we simplify the equation:
26 = 12 + 2 × width
We can then isolate the width by subtracting 12 from both sides of the equation:
26 - 12 = 2 × width
14 = 2 × width
Finally, we can solve for the width by dividing both sides by 2:
14 / 2 = width
Therefore, the width of the rectangular workroom is 7 feet.
