Question

The diagram shows a square with a perimeter of 20cm. What is the perimeter of the rectangle?

Answer 1

p = 60cm

Explanation:

20 / 4 = 5cm

whole thing = 5 x 12 = 60cm

Answer 2

Answer

Explanation:

so the squars perimiter is 20cm and the square has 4 sides so 20/4 is 5 so each side of the square is 5cm long

so if you add all the sides together on the rectangle (only the ones on the perimiter) you get

5 x 12 = 60

so 60cm is the perimiter
