The dimensions of the rectangular pool shown below are 50 yards by 25 yards. A fence will be built around the outside of the deck. The ratio of the dimensions of the pool to the dimensions of the fence is 1/2 . How many yards of fence should be purchased to enclose the deck?

The dimensions of the fence are three times pool's ones, i.e. 180 and 90.

You need (180 + 90)×2 = 540
