Answer:
Total fringe needed = 132 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
P.S - The exact question is -
Given - Alejandra plans to sew fringe on a scarf. The scarf is shaped like a rectangle. The length of the scarf is 44 inches. The width is one half the length.
To find - How much fringe does Alejandra need?
Proof -
Total fringe needed = Perimeter of the rectangle.
Now,
We know that,
Perimeter of the Rectangle = 2(Length + Width)
Now,
Given that,
Length = 44 inches
Width = one half the length
= × 44 = 22 inches
⇒Width = 22 inches
∴ we get
Perimeter of the Rectangle = 2(44 + 22)
= 2(66) = 132 inches
⇒Perimeter of Rectangle = 132 inches
∴ we get
Total fringe needed = Perimeter of the rectangle = 132 inches
⇒Total fringe needed = 132 inches
