Answer:
width of the rectangle is 6 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the rectangle = 8 cm
Let the width of the rectangle = w cm
Perimeter = 28 cm
Now, we know that
The perimeter of a rectangle = 2 ( Length + Width)
or, 2 ( Length + Width) = 28 cm
⇒ 2 (8 + w) = 28
or, 16 + 2w = 28
⇒ 2w = 28 - 16 = 12
or, w = 6 cm
Hence, the width of the rectangle is 6 cm.
