Answer:

Both left and right sides of the equation are equal

Step-by-step explanation:

suppose a rectangle is a quadrilateral with the parallel sides equal

one of the side is named as "l" while other is named as "w"

now according to the definition  perimeter is the sum of all the sides of a quadrilateral so the equation can be written as

     p= w+l+w+l --------(1)

now performing the arithmetic operation i.e addition in the equation and the equation becomes

   p=l+l+w+w     (rearranging the 1)

   p=2l+2w

taking 2 as common the equation becomes

   p=2(l+w)

hence the problem is solved

Answer:

l = p - 2w/2

Step-by-step explanation:

P=2(l+w)

to solve for l is simply making l the subject of the formular

now

from p = 2(l +w)

we open the bracket

p = 2l + 2w

p- 2w = 2l

divide both sides by 2

p - 2w/ 2 = 2l/2

therefore

l = p - 2w/2................. solved
