Question

Find the perimeter of the triangle

Answer 1

8 feet

Explanation:

When calculating mixed numbers, I like to make all the numbers to improper fractions with the same denominators first before evaluating.

Perimeter of triangle = 2
`(3)/(8)` + 2
`(3)/(8)` + 3
`(1)/(4)`

=
`(19)/(8)` +
`(19)/(8)` +
`(13)/(4)`

=
`(19)/(8)` +
`(19)/(8)` +
`(26)/(8)`

=
`(64)/(8)`

= 8 feet
