Question

Coby needs to know the area and perimeter of his farm property. The length of his property is 1 6 mile and the width is 2 9 mile. What is the area? The area is sq mi. What is the perimeter? The perimeter is mi.

Answer 1

P= 7/9 miles

A= (7/18) miles²

Explanation:

Length 'l' = (1/6) mile

Width 'w'= (2/9) mile

Perimeter 'P' is given by:

'P' = 2l + 2w => 2(1/6) + 2(2/9)

P= 7/9 miles

Area 'A' is given by:

A= l x w =(1/6) x (2/9) = (7/18) miles²
