Question

Marcus wanted to build a rectangular fence around his backyard. His backyard is thirty-two feet long and six yards wide. What is the perimeter of the backyard in feet?

Answer 1

Answer:

The perimeter of the backyard is 100 feet.          

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Dimensions of backyard:

Length, l = 32 feet

Width, w = 6 yards

1 yard = 3 foot

Width of backyard =

$=6\times 3 = 18\text{ foot}$

Perimeter pf backyard =

$P = 2(l+w)\\P =2(32 +18)\\P=100\text{ feet}$

Thus, the perimeter of the backyard is 100 feet.
