Question

Sanji has a square room with a perimeter of 42.5 feet. If she wants to hang a curtain along one full side of the room, how long does the curtain need to be?

Answer 1

Answer:

The length of the curtain is 10.625 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the curtain to cover one side of the room depends on the shape of the room

Given a room shape of a square, we have;

Perimeter = 4 × Side length of the room

Length of the curtain = Side length of the room

Therefore;

Perimeter = 4 × Length of the curtain

42.5 feet = 4 × Length of the curtain

Length of the curtain = (42.5 feet)/4 = 10.625 feet

The length of the curtain = 10.625 feet.
