i'm in 8th grade and we're doing a 7th grade review on math, and i'm really stuck on this problem (i'm not stupid, i really don't remember any of this algebra haha)
the problem is:
The area of a rectangle is 320 m squared. The width of the rectangle is 16 m. What is the perimeter of the rectangle?
Thank you soooo much!

You set up the problem like this:
16x = 320. So divide 320 by 16. You get 20.
Then, to find the perimeter, you add 20(2)+16(2) and get 72. There's your answer :)
