Question

Every morning, Jane runs around a rectangular garden with a length of l and a width of w. If she completes four laps around the garden, which expression best approximates the total distance she ran?

Answer 1

might be a, dont take my word for it though

Explanation:

4(length+width) since for example lenght is 4 and width is 2 you'd add those together and multiply by the number of laps you did (4 in this case)

Answer 2

4laps = 8* (l+w)

Explanation:

1 lap = perimeter = (l+w)*2

4 laps = 4 perimeter = 4* ((l+w)*2) = 8* (l+w)
