I believe the answer would be 198.54

First, find the circumference of the circle which for a diameter of 25, would be roughly 78.54 (according to goo gle) and the equation for circumference, C= πd

Then, add the 120, because of the rectangle in between the two half circles.

So my thought process was find the circumference, assuming that it was a full circle because it has two halves of a circle on either end. Then after that, you would add the two sides of the rectangle that contribute to the size of the perimeter

Please correct me if Needed and have a good day!
