1. The formula for calculate the perimeter of a rectangle, is:
P=2L+2W
P is the perimeter of the rectangle (P=320 feet).
L is the lenght of the rectangle.
W is the width of the rectangle.

2. The problem says that the length of the rectangle is three times the width, so you have:
</span>
L=3W
3. When you substitute L=3W and P=320, into P=2L+2W, you obtain:
P=2L+2W
320=2(3W)+2W
320=6W+2W
8W=320
W=320/8
W=40 feet
4. The barn forms one end of the rectangle. Therefore the linear feet of fence (x) is:
x=P-W
x=320 feet-40 feet
x=280 feet
<span>
How many linear feet of fence must he buy?
</span>
The answer is: 280 feet
It takes 48 hours if 12 people built the same wall.

that is to mean:
PQ⊥RS
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 3:5
Step-by-step explanation:
So, taking the ratio of the time taken by Henry to the time taken by Gavin is: (36 mins/ 60 mins) = (36/60) = 3:5 [Taking minutes as the common unit for both of the cases.] Thus the ratio is 3:5 in simplest form.
