The length of a rectangle is 7/5 of its width. Find the ratio of the rectangle’s width to its perimeter.

Let the width of the rectangle be x. Then the length will be 7 / 5x. We can calculate the perimeter of a rectangle by adding the length and width and multiplying the resulting sum by two:

p = 2 (x + 7 / 5x) = 2x + 14x / 5 = (10x + 14x) / 5 = 24 / 5x the perimeter of the rectangle.

Now let’s find the ratio of the width of the rectangle to the perimeter. We took the width of the rectangle as x, then

x: 24 / 5x = 5x / 24x = 5/24 width to perimeter ratio.

Answer: The ratio of width to perimeter is 5/24.
