If you are asking for the perimeter of the bulletin board the answer below will be correct!
Answer:
Square option: 9.5 Meters
Rectangle option: see explanation below
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the perimeter you must add the lengths of all the sides. Assuming the bulletin board is a SQUARE all four sides are going to be equal. Therefore you can divide 38 by 4 to get the length of one side (aka 9.5 meters).
Assuming the bulletin board is a RECTANGLE changes things up. You can pretty much pick any combination of numbers that will add up to 19 (because if it is a rectangle there are two pairs of equal side lengths). You could do 1 + 18, 5+14, 8+11. The options are really endless
