Question

The basketball court at Johnson Elementary School is the shape of a rectangle. It is 92 feet long and 46 feet wide. What is the perimeter of the basketball court?

Answer 1

The perimeter of the basketball court is 276 feet².

Explanation:

Given:

The basketball court at Johnson Elementary School is the shape of a rectangle.

It is 92 feet long and 46 feet wide.

Now, to find the perimeter of the basketball court.

Length = 92 feet.

Width = 46 feet.

So, to get the perimeter we put formula:

`Perimeter=2(length+width)`

`Perimeter=2(92+46)`

`Perimeter=2* 138`

`Perimeter=276\ feet^2.`

Therefore, the perimeter of the basketball court is 276 feet².
