Answer:

11.5 meters

Explanation:

Since we know the perimeter of a hexagon, and we know in a hexagon there are 6 equal sides, then we can find the length of each side.

P = 6*x, where P is the perimeter and 6 is the total amount of sides and x is the length of each side. Plug in 69 for P and solve your equation.

69 = 6x

Divide by 6 on both sides to isolate x

11.5 = x

Hope this helps

Answer:

Each side is 11.5 m

Explanation:

A hexagon is a 6 sided figure

The figures has sides that are all the same length

P = 6s where s is the side length

69 = 6s

Divide each side by 6

69/6 = 6s/6

11.5 =s

Each side is 11.5 m
