The width of the rectangle is 14 inches. The width is 9 inches less than the length. What is the perimeter of this rectangle?

Knowing the width of the rectangle, you can find the length, it turns out to be 9 dm more than the width. So we get:

14 + 9 = 23 (dm) – the length of the rectangle.

Now we can find its perimeter.

P = 2 (a + b)

P = 2 (14 + 23) = 74 (dm) – the perimeter of the rectangle.

Answer: 74 in. Perimeter of the rectangle.
