Question

How much would it cost to fence in this property if fencing costs $ 5.00 per foot

Answer 1

You start by adding the integer:

39+75+120+50 =284

What you have left: 1/2, 1/3, 1/6

Make the 1/3 to 1/6:
1 (•1)/3 (•2) = 1/6
1 (•2)/6 (•1) = 2/6

1/6 + 2/6 = 3/6 = 1/2

1/2 + 1/2 = 1

284+1

285 feet • $5 = $1425

Answer 2

Answer:

The cost of the fencing is $1425 .

Option (A) is correct .

Step-by-step explanation:

As  the sides given in the figure are

$As\ the\ sides\ given\ in\ the\ figure\ are\ 39 \frac{1}{3}\ foot,\ 75 \frac{1}{2}\ foot ,\ 50 \frac{1}{6}\ foot\ and\ 120\ foot .$

I.e

$As\ the\ sides\ given\ in\ the\ figure\ are\ \frac{118}{3}\ foot, \ \frac{151}{2}\ foot , \ \frac{301}{6}\ foot\ and\ 120\ foot .$

$As\ the\ sides\ given\ in\ the\ figure\ are\ 39.3\ foot, \ 75.5\ foot , \ 50.2\ foot\ and\ 120\ foot .$

Thus

Perimeter of the fencing = 39.3 + 75.5 + 50.2 + 120

                                         = 285 foot

As the fencing costs $ 5.00 per foot .

Cost of the fencing = 285 × 5

                                =$1425

Therefore the cost of the fencing is $1425 .

Option (A) is correct .
