Answer:

  90 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths of the enclosure. The length is given as 80 ft, but only one side that long counts as part of the 260 ft of fence. So, we have ...

  260 ft = 2×W + L = 2×W + 80 ft . . . . . length of fence for 3 sides

  180 ft = 2×W . . . . . . subtract 80

  90 ft = W . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

The width of the enclosure is 90 feet.

Who is faster?
Kay [80]
Kendra is going faster. You could convert Kendra's measurement to feet per second by doing to following:

0.25 mi/1 min x 5280 ft/1 mi x 1 min/60 sec

Which equals:

(0.25)(5280)ft/60 sec

Simplify, and Kendra's speed is 22 feet per second.

mi= mile(s)
min= minute(s)
ft= feet
sec= second(s)
