Arectangular patio has a length of 12 1/2 feet and an area of 108 1/8 square feet what is the width of the patio

Length of the rectangular patio =

Let the width of the patio be = x

Area of the patio is given as =

As the area of a rectangle is = length*width, so

x= =

x =

Hence, width of the patio is feet.

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=

10

2

x=5
