Question

Find the perimeter and area of a rectangle of cardboard measuring 16.7 cm by 11.9 cm

Answer 1

The perimeter is 57.2 cm and the area is 198.73 cm^2

Explanation:

Step 1: Determine the perimeter

`Perimeter = 2(l + w)`

`Perimeter = 2(16.7\ cm + 11.9\ cm)`

`Perimeter = 2(28.6\ cm)`

`Perimeter = 57.2\ cm`

Step 2: Determine the area

`Area = l * w`

`Area = 16.7\ cm * 11.9\ cm`

`Area = 198.73\ cm^2`

Answer: The perimeter is 57.2 cm and the area is 198.73 cm^2
