Given:

The size of the rabbit run is 350cm by 350cm.

Th sides of the sqaure a = 350cm.

The length of the fencing roll = 6m.

The number of fencing rolls =3.

To find:

We need to find the length of the wire fencing.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total length of the wire fencing roll = 3 times 6m.


=3*6
=18m

The total length of the wire fencing roll =18m.

Multiply 18m by 100 to convert m to cm.


18m=18*100cm


18m=1800cm

The total length of the wire fencing roll =1800cm.

The rabbit run is in a sqaure shape.

The length of wire needs to put wire fencing around the rabbit run = the perimeter of rabbit run.

Consider the perimeter of the square.


P=4a

Substitute side a =350cm in the formula.


P=4*350cm


P=1400cm

We need 1400cm length of wire to put wire fencing around the rabbit run.

We have 1800cm length wire fencing.

It is enough to go around the rabbit run.

Final answer:

Three rolls of wire fencing is enough to go around the rabbit run.​
