Q:

The area of the rectangular doghouse floor is 15 square feet.The length of the floor is 5 feet.What is the perimeter of the floor of the doghouse?

Accepted Solution

A:
16 ft because the perimeter is 15 ft and perimeter is length times width. The only number that you can multiply by 5 to get 15 is 3 and perimeter is all sides added up. You add up 5+5+3+3 to get 16 ft.
