Question

The length and breadth of the top of a rectangular table is $x$ and $y$, respectively. Find the expression for perimeter.

• A. $2(x+y)$
• B. $2x+y$
• C. $x+2y$
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is A $2(x+y)$

It is given that the length of the top of a rectangular table is $x$ and breadth is $y$.
So, the perimeter of the rectangular table top = $2\times (Length+Breadth)$
= $2\times (x+y)$
= $2(x+y)$
