The perimeter of a piece is 38 inches.its length is 11 inches.
Find the width of the piece of paper
To find the width of the piece of paper, we need to use the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle:
Perimeter = 2(length + width)
We are given the perimeter, which is 38 inches, and the length, which is 11 inches. Using algebra, we can solve for the width:
38 = 2(11 + width)
38 = 22 + 2width
38 - 22 = 2width
16 = 2width
8 = width
Therefore, the width of the piece of paper is 8 inches.
