    Width of rectangle = 10.16 cm.

    Explanation:

    Converting inches to centimeters

    1 inch=2.54 cm

    Perimeter of the rectangle = 22 inches = 22 * 2.54 = 55.88 cm

    Let the width of the rectangle be W.

    Length of the rectangle is 3 inches more than its width i. e 3*2.54 = 7.62 cm more than its width

    So, length of the rectangle = W+7.62

    Parameter of the rectangle = 2 (Length+Width)

    55.88 = 2 (W+7.62+W)

    55.88=2 (2W+7.62)

    55.88=4W + 15.24

    55.88-15.24=4W

    W=10.16 cm

    Width of the rectangle is 10.16 centimeters.
