To find the perimeter of the sheet of typing paper, we need to find the sum of all four sides.
The width of the paper is 8 1/2 inches, which we can write as 8.5 inches.
The length of the paper is 11 inches.
The perimeter can be calculated as follows:
Perimeter = 2 × (width + length)
= 2 × (8.5 + 11)
= 2 × (19.5)
= 39 inches
Therefore, the perimeter of the sheet of typing paper is 39 inches.
