Clara created the poster shown below:

Answer:

$length=4\ cm\\width=6\ cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rectangular poster shown in the picture, you know that its dimensions (its width and its lenght) are:

$w_1=24\ cm\\l_1=16\ cm$

In order to calculate the dimensions of the rectangular at $\frac{1}{4}$ times its current size, you need to multiply the original lenght by $\frac{1}{4}$ and multiply the original width by $\frac{1}{4}$ .

Knowing this, you get:

$w_2=w_1\frac{1}{4}\\\\w_2=(24\ cm)(\frac{1}{4})\\\\w_2=6\ cm\\\\\\l_2=l_1\frac{1}{4}\\\\l_2=(16\ cm)(\frac{1}{4})\\\\l_2=4\ cm$

lutik1710 [3]

Answer: The perimeter of Martha's wooden border = 44 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The formula to find the perimeter = 2w + 2l. , where w = width and l = length

If l= 12 feet and w = 10 feet

Then, the perimeter of Martha's wooden border = 2(10)+2 (12) feet

The perimeter of Martha's wooden border = 20+24 feet

The perimeter of Martha's wooden border = 44 feet

Therefore, the perimeter of Martha's wooden border = 44 feet.
