The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 51 feet. what is the length of one of its side? explain your work

Hello!

The answer is: 17 ft.

Explanation:

To find this out, just divide the perimeter, and the amount of sides in a triangle, which is 3. This will only work with equilateral triangles because an equilateral triangle has all three sides the same length. Anyway, divide 51 and 3. (51 / 3 = 17) Just to make sure, you can add three 17's together, 17 + 17 + 17 = 51, the perimeter.
