the. expression to find the perimeter of a rectangle is 2 (lengtg+width) what is the perimeter in units of a rectangle of length 1/3 unit and width 1/2 unit

5/3 units or 1 2/3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 2 (l+w)

We know the length = 1/3 and the width = 1/2

P = 2 (1/3+1/2)

Get a common denominator of 6

1/3 * 2/2 = 2/6

1/2 * 3/3 = 3/6

Therefore

P = 2 (2/6+3/6)

= 2 (5/6)

= 10/6

=5/3 units

Changing from an improper fraction

= 1 2/3 units
