Find the perimeter of a rectangular area with a length of 13 inches and

Can Somebody help please

What do you mean by distributive property?

Like solving it and then solving it out a different way like that

P=2(L+W)

P=2(13+7)
P= 40

What does L+W mean

length of 13 inches and

a width of 7 inches

Now what do suppose L and W are?

Ok thank you Ms.Sue thank you so much!!!

One more thing how do I do it a different way like with including steps

AKIRRA showed you one way.

Also -
P = 2L + 2W
P = 2(13) + 2(7)
P = 26 + 14
P = ?

This helps a lot, thank you.
