William wants to build a sandbox that has a perimeter of 14 meters. The length is 5 meters.

Let's solve this Question:

Given Data:

Parameter of Sandbox = 14m

Length of Sandbox = 5m

To Find:

Width of Sandbox = ??

Solution:

As the parameter of sandbox

Parameter= 2 x ( Length + Width)

Let's put values:

14m = 2 x ( 5m +width)

Dividing both sides by 2

7m = 5m + width

7m -5m = 5m -5m + width

2m = width

width = 2m

Final Answer:

The width of sandbox becomes 2 meters.
