Answer: 100 inches

Explanation:

From the question, we are given the information that Nia had a 20 inch by 30 inch enlargement made of a photograph and that she wanted to have it framed.

The number of inches of frame that she would use to enclose the photo will be gotten by calculating the perimeter of the shape and this will be:

= 2(length + width)

= 2(30 + 20)

= 2(50 inches)

= 100 inches

To enclose the photo, 100 inches of frame is needed.
