Question

Banu will build a fence around a rectangular

30-foot-by-25-foot play area. Given that fencing costs
$4.05 per foot, how much will the fencing cost for
Banu to completely surround the play area?

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

Dimension of the rectangular fence:

Length = 30 ft

Width = 25 ft

Perimeter of the rectangular fence = 2(L + W)

= 2(30 + 25) = 2(55)

Perimeter = 110 ft

Fencing cost per foot = $4.05

Fencing cost for 110 ft = 110 × 4.05 = $445.50
