Answer:

The perimeter of one poster is 57 inches.

Explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by:


P = 2(w + h)

Where:

w: is the widht = 12.5 in

h: is the height = 16 in

Hence, the perimeter is:


P = 2(w + h) = 2(12.5 + 16) = 57 in

Therefore, the perimeter of one poster is 57 inches.

I hope it helps you!
