Question

Charlene wants to build a fence around her rectangular garden. The garden measures 20 meters by 60 meters. 

Answer 1

well do you need to find the area or perimeter

Answer 2

The perimeter because the fence goes AROUND the yard, not in it.

P = 2w + 2l

P = 2(60) + 2(20)

P = 120 + 40

P = 160

Charlene needs 160 meters of fencing material.
