Question

27 feet


180 feet


42 feet


54 feet

Answer 1

54 feet

Explanation:

You have to find the perimeter of the room to get the answer:

P = 2(length) + 2(width)

P = 2(15) + 2 (12)

P = 30 + 24

P = 54

Answer 2

Answer:54 ft

Explanation:

15+15=30

12+12=24

30+24=54

You are finding perimeter if that helps at all!!
