The area of a rectangular room is 154 square feet. If the length of one side of

the room is 11 feet, what is the perimeter of the room?

length=11

width=x

area=11*x

11x=154

x=14

The previous response give you the width but now the perimeter.

The full solution is as states:

Area = length x width

154 = 11w

Complete the Inverse Operation for Multiplication and Divide 154 by 11

14 = w ... therefore the width is 14 feet

Perimeter = 2 (length) + 2 (width)

P = 2 (11) + 2 (14)

P = 22 + 28

P = 50 ... therefore the perimeter of the room is 50 feet
