Question

1. A small garden has a perimeter of 24 1/4 ft. If the lengths is 8 ft, what is the area of the garden.

Answer 1

The area of the garden is 33 ft².

The number of tiles required to cover the floor is 17 tiles.

The area of a dog pen is 170/9 square yards.

We need to find the area and perimeter for the given questions.

What are the formulas to find the perimeter and the area of a rectangle?

The formula to find the perimeter of a rectangle=2(Length+Breadth)

The formula to find the area of a rectangle=Length×Breadth.

Given that, a small garden has a perimeter of 24 1/4 ft and the length is 8 ft.

Now, perimeter = 2(8+Breadth)

⇒24 1/4=16+2×Breadth

⇒97/4-16=2×Breadth

⇒Breadth=97-64/4×2=33/8 ft

Now, Area=8×33/8=33 ft²

Therefore, the area of the garden is 33 ft².

Given that, the floor measures 4 1/2 ft by 3 3/4 ft.

The area of a floor=Length×Breadth=9/2×15/4=135/8 ft²

Number of tiles to cover the floor=135/8=16.875

Therefore, the number of tiles required to cover the floor is 17 tiles.

Given that, a dog pen is 3 1/3 yards wide by 5 2/3 yards long.

Now, the area of a dog pen=10/3×17/3=170/9 square yards.

Therefore, the area of a dog pen is 170/9 square yards.
