Perimeter Ratio Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Perimeter Ratio.
PRR = PL / TA
- Where PRR is the Perimeter Ratio (1/in)
- PL is the total perimeter length (in)
- TA is the total area (in^2)
To calculate the perimeter ratio, divide the perimeter length by the total area.
How to Calculate Perimeter Ratio?
The following example problems outline how to calculate Perimeter Ratio.
Example Problem #1:
- First, determine the total perimeter length (in).
- The total perimeter length (in) is given as: 50.
- Next, determine the total area (in^2).
- The total area (in^2) is provided as: 600.
- Finally, calculate the Perimeter Ratio using the equation above:
PRR = PL / TA
The values given above are inserted into the equation below and the solution is calculated:
PRR = 50 / 600 = .0833 (1/in)
Example Problem #2:
For this problem, the variables required are provided below:
total perimeter length (in) = 70
total area (in^2) = 800
Test your knowledge using the equation and check your answer with the calculator above.
PRR = PL / TA = ?
