The length of the quadrangle is 23cm and is 55% of the perimeter. Find 44% of the rectangle’s perimeter.

1. Since we know that the length of the quadrangle is 23 cm, and it is 55% of its perimeter, therefore we can calculate what the perimeter of this quadrangle is.

23 cm – 55%;

x cm – 100%.

23 * 100 = 55 * x;

2300 = 55 * x;

x = 2300/55;

x = 41 45/55 cm.

2. Now that we know that the perimeter of the quadrilateral is 41 45/55 cm, we calculate what is equal to 44% of its perimeter.

41 45/100 cm – 100%;

x cm – 44%.

41 45/100 * 44 = 100 * x;

2300/55 * 44 = 100 * x;

101200/55 = 100 * x;

1840 = 100 * x;

x = 1840/100;

x = 18.40 cm.

Answer: 44% of the perimeter is 18.40 cm.
