What is perimeter?

" Perimeter is defined as the length around the given shape."

Formula used

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 ( length + width)

According to the question,

Given,

Length of the rectangular garden 'l' = 12 meters

Perimeter of the rectangular garden = 30 meters

'w' represents the width of the rectangular garden

Substitute the value in the formula of perimeter we get,

[tex]2( 12 + w) =30\\\\\implies 12 + w = \frac{30}{2}\\ \\\implies w = 15-12\\\\\implies w =3meters[/tex]

Hence , width of the rectangular shape garden is equals to 3meters.
