Answer: 50m x 10m

(50m x 2) + (10m x 2) = 120m
Therefore that was the correct answer

As for the rest of them, if you do the same, you wouldn't get 120m as your answer

Hope this helped :) Also, idk why you repeated your question three times but that kind of intimidates people to not answer your question just so you kno :B
