Question

You want to put a fence around your field. The cost of fencing is $60 per meter. The

Answer 1

Cost per meter(C) = $60/m
Length of rectangular field(L) = 50m
L = 2W
-> W = L/2
-> W = 50/2
-> Width of rectangular field = 25m
Cost of one field length(l) = L x C
-> l = 50 x 60
-> l = $3000
Two of the lengths of the field = 2 x l
-> 2 x $3000
-> $6000

Cost of one field width(w) = W x C
-> w = 25 x 60
-> w = $1500
Two of the widths of the field = 2 x w
-> 2 x $1500
-> $3000

Cost of fencing entire field = $6000+$3000
Hence, total field cost = $9000
