Question

i don't know if i have ask this question already

The perimeter of a rectangular flower garden is 60 m and its area is 225 m2. Find the length of the garden

how do i show my work and solve this can i have step by step help

Answer 1

\(\huge\color{magenta}{ \rm L }\)
\(\normalsize\color{ slate }{\Huge{\bbox[5pt, lightcyan ,border:2px solid black ]{ \color{lightcyan}{\Huge\frac{~~~~~~~~\frac{~}{~~~\frac{~\frac{}{}~}{~\frac{~}{~}}~~~~}~~~}{~\frac{\frac{~}{~\frac{~\frac{}{~}}{~}}~~}{~}~~} } }}}\) \(\huge\color{darkviolet}{ \rm W }\)

\(\huge\color{blue}{ \rm A_{rectangle} = \color{magenta}{ \rm L }\times\color{darkviolet}{ \rm W } }\)

is the formula/concept:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In your case,

\(\huge\color{magenta}{ \rm L }\)
\(\normalsize\color{ slate }{\Huge{\bbox[5pt, lightcyan ,border:2px solid black ]{ \color{lightcyan}{\Huge\frac{~~~~~~~~\frac{~}{~~~\frac{~\frac{}{}~}{~\frac{~}{~}}~~~~}~~~}{~\frac{\frac{~}{~\frac{~\frac{}{~}}{~}}~~}{~}~~} } }}}\) \(\huge\color{darkviolet}{ \rm 60 }\)

\(\huge\color{blue}{ \rm 225 = \color{magenta}{ \rm L }\times\color{darkviolet}{ \rm 60 } }\)

Answer 2

can you solve for \(\LARGE\color{magenta}{ \rm L }\) ?

Answer 3

ok so do i mulp

Answer 4

\(\sf 225 = L \times 60 \rightarrow 225 = 60L\)

Answer 5

cool drawing :)

Answer 6

mulp..?

Answer 7

Just solve for 'L':

\(\sf 225 = 60L\)

Answer 8

13500

Answer 9

thanx math:) just a little trick with a box

Answer 10

No..how did you get that..?

Answer 11

i mulp 225x60

Answer 12

\(\LARGE\color{black}{ \rm 225=60 \times \color{magenta}{L} }\) isolate the \(\LARGE\color{black}{ \color{magenta}{L} }\)

Answer 13

@SolomonZelman Yes, me likes your rectangle :D

Answer 14

lol, ty!

Answer 15

No, we do not multiply..

To get 'L' by itself, we must get rid of the '60' that is being multiplied to it..and to do that we do the opposite..so what's the opposite of multiplication? @micahm

Answer 16

divd

Answer 17

yes

Answer 18

you divide:)

Answer 19

3.75

Answer 20

Yep, you got it.

Answer 21

Answer 26

yes, but your unit, is meter, don't foget

Answer 27

forget

Answer 28

Lol, all you have to do is plug in '225 / 60' in google where you usually have your URL..it pops right up..you don't even have to press 'Enter'.

Answer 29

I like that they are using an SI unit in the example, lol :D

Answer 30

alrighty, yw:)

Answer 31

yep..3.75 is your answer..

Answer 32

thank you very much both of you

Answer 33

:D
