Two inches are cut off one side of a square board and three inches are added to an adjacent side. The resulting rectangle has a perimeter of 54 inches. What were the dimensions of the original square?

Respuesta :

Answer: 53

Step-by-step explanation:

The original square had a dimension of x and x was reduced by 2 which means x-2 and 3 was added so the formula will be x-2+3=54 and to work that out you have to do it backwards.

54-3=51

51+2=53

So the original dimension was 53inches
