Find the perimeter of the rectangle above.

Step 1: I know the length is 7in and the width is 3 in.

Step 2: The formula for perimeter is
P=(2 x l) + (2 x w)

Step 3: Fill in the formula with the information from the problem:
P = (2 x 7) + (2 x 3)

Step 4: Solve
2x7= ?
2x3= ?
Then add those products.
