Answer:

B. 8(l + w)

Explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangular garden is calculated using the formula;


P=2(l+w)

If Jane runs around a rectangular garden with a length of l and a width of w, and she completes four laps around the garden, Then, the total distance she ran is:


P=4* 2(l+w)

We simplify to get:


P=8(l+w)
