Question

Okay HELP i have to questions in one problem.

Question number 1 : Rihannon has a rectangular bedspread that measures 234 inches by 245 inches. She wants to sew a fringe around the edge of the bedspread. What LENGTH of fringe does rihannon need to purchase???

Question number 2 : Rihannon gets a new bedspread that is 33 inches longer. What LENGTH of fringe does Rihannon need for the longer bedspread??? PLEASEEE HELP

Answer 1

1) To calculate length of fringe, we need to find the perimeter

The question does not clearly say how much is length and width

Assuming length = 245 and width = 234 inches

P = 2(length + width)

P = 2 ( 245 + 234)

P = 2 (479)

P = 958 inches

2) To calculate length of fringe, when length is increased by 33 inches

P = 2 ( l + w)

P = 2 (278 + 234)

P = 2 x 512

P = 1024 inches
