Answer: 13 2/3 cm

Explanation:

1. Turn mixed fractions into improper fractions:

4 1/2 = 9/2

2. Formula for perimeter: left side + right side + upper base + lower base

3. Put your numbers in replace: 10/3 + 10/3 + 5/2 + 9/2

4. Solve: 41/3

5. Simplify into mixed fraction: 41/3 = 13 2/3

Answer:

13 2/3 cm

Explanation:

To find the perimeter, add up all the sides

2 1/2 + 3 1/3+ 4 1/2 + 3 1/3

Add up the whole numbers

2+3+4+3 = 12

Add up the fractions

1/2+1/3+1/2+1/3

2/2 + 2/3

1 +2/3

Put them together

12+1+2/3

13 2/3
