Zahra cuts out a rectangle that has a perimeter of 22 inches and a length of 9 inches. She cuts out another rectangle that is the same length and twice as wide.

What is the perimeter of the new rectangle?
inch(es)

1 answer

The rectangle has a length of 9 inches, so the width of the second rectangle is twice the length, which is 9*2 = <<9*2=18>>18 inches.
The perimeter of the new rectangle is given by 2 times the sum of the length and the width, which is 2*(9+18) = 2*27 = <<2*(9+18)=54>>54 inches. Answer: \boxed{54}.
