Question

Farmer Bob needs to build a fencing for his poultry farm 40 metre long and 20 metre wide. What is the total length of fencing needed? Write the formula to find the answer.Required to answer.

Answer 1

120 meters

Explanation:

Bob's land is a rectangle, so it has 2 long and 2 short sides. The Long side is 40 meters long, and the short side is 20 meters long.

Let's add them: 40 + 20 = 60 meters

Since we have 2 of those sides, we will multiply it by 2 which we can demonstrate as

60 meters * 2 = 120 meters
