Find the length of the side of the quadrilateral if its perimeter is 7dm 3cm, and the sum of the three sides is 48cm.

The sum of the three sides is expressed in centimeters and the perimeter in decimetres and centimeters. Let’s convert the values of the perimeter to centimeters. 1 decimeter is equal to 10 centimeters.

7 dm 3cm = 7 * 10 cm + 3 cm = 73 cm.

We subtract the sum of three sides from the perimeter, we get the length of one side of the quadrilateral.

73 cm – 48cm = 25 cm.

Answer: the length of the side of the quadrangle is 25 cm.
