Question

Erwin Elementary decided to plant a garden. They set up a rectangle that was

20.75 meters by 15.8 meters. What is the perimeter of the garden? *

Answer 1

P = 73.1 m

Explanation:

The length of a rectangle, l = 20.75 m

The width of a rectangle, b = 15.8 m

We need to find the perimeter of the garden. The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is given by :

P = 2(l+b)

Substitue all the values,

P = 2(20.75+15.8)

P = 2(36.55)

P = 73.1 m

So, the perimeter of the garden is 73.1 m.
