Question

Farmer Bob's son built a track to walk his pet pig. The track goes around the pig pen. The pig pen is 12 feet long and 20 feet wide. If the pig walks all the way around the track, how many feet did he walk?

Answer 1

64 ft

Explanation:

The pig walked the perimeter of the rectangle whose dimensions are 20 ft and 12 ft.

Use the perimeter formula of a rectangle.

2(l + b) = 2(20 + 12) = 64ft

Cheers!
