Question

How many meters of wire is needed to fence around this garden whose sides are 16m by 12m? ( not drawn to scale)

Answer 1

Answer: 56 m

Explanation:

Given

The dimension of the garden is
`16\ m* 12\ m`

So, the wire needed to fence around it is equal to the perimeter of the garden

`\Rightarrow P=2(16+12)\\\Rightarrow P=2* 28\\\Rightarrow P=56\ m`
