Question

You want to put a fence around your field. The cost of fencing is $60 per meter. The length of the field is 50 meters. If the length of the field is twice the width, determine the cost of fencing the entire field.

Answer 1

$9000, 25x50 is the WxL shown here. 25m is half the length of 50m which is twice the length of the width, 25m. 2L+2W= 2(50)+2(25)=150m total needed. 150m total fencingx$60 per M of fencing= $9000
