Rather made a 10 to figure out sum for 9 + 3. explain eathens thinking

to make it easier

Step-by-step explanation:

well 9+3=12 but taking 1 from the three and making ten then adding 2 is easier

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
