Question

A

Samuel's specialty is fences. He has a standard fence he likes to build. It's
perimeter is 76 2/3 feet. If Samuel builds eight of these fences, how many feet of
material will he need? Explain how you found your answer.

Answer 1

Samuel will need 614 2/3 feet of material to build eight of his standard fences. To find this answer, we simply need to multiply 76 2/3 feet (the perimeter of one fence) by 8 (the number of fences he wants to build). Thus, 76 2/3 feet x 8 = 614 2/3 feet.
