Respuesta :
P = 2(L + W)
L = 1/7
W = 1/2
P = 2(L + W)
P = 2(1/7 + 1/2)
P = 2(2/14 + 7/14)
P = 2(9/14)
P = 18/14 which reduces to 9/7 or 1 2/9 <==

Answer:
perimeter of rectangle is 9/7 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of a rectangle is given by
Perimeter = 2(length + width)
Given that
[tex]length=\frac{1}{7}\\\\width=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Substituting these values in the above formula
[tex]P=2(\frac{1}{7}+\frac{1}{2})[/tex]
Add the fractions. The LCD is 14. So, multiply and divide by 14
[tex]P=\frac{2}{14}(\frac{1}{7}\times14+\frac{1}{2}\times14)\\\\P=\frac{1}{7}(2+7)\\\\P=\frac{9}{7}[/tex]
Thus, perimeter of rectangle is 9/7 units.
