Question

A small garden has a perimeter of 24 1/4feet. If the length is 8 feet, what is the area of the garden.

Answer 1

Answer: A=33 ft^2

Explanation:

P=perimeter. A=Area. l=length. w=width.

P=2l+2w

24 1/4=2(8)+2w

(24*4+1)/4=16+2w

(96+1)/4=16*4/4+2w

97/4=64/4+2w

2w=33/4

w=33/8

A=l*w

A=8*33/8

A=33*8/8

A=33*1

A=33 ft^2
