    In a rectangle, there are two lengths and two widths with the same measure.

    If one length is 25cm, it has to have another length of 25cm. Thus, the rectangle must have 2 widths with the same value.

    The formula to find the perimeter is the sum of all sides, the rectangle has 4 sides (2 lengths, 2 Widths).

    Perimeter (Rectangle) = Length + Length + Width + Width = 90cm

    It's the same as writing P = 2 x Length + 2 x Width = 90cm.

    Now to find the width, just substitute the length value in the formula:

    -> P = 2 x 25 + 2 x Width = 90cm

    -> 50 + 2 x Width = 90cm

    -> 2 x Width = 90 - 50

    -> 2 x Width = 40

    -> Width = 40/2

    -> Width = 20cm
