1. The formula for calculate the perimeter of a rectangle, is:
P=2L+2W
P is the perimeter of the rectangle (P=320 feet).
L is the lenght of the rectangle.
W is the width of the rectangle.

2. The problem says that the length of the rectangle is three times the width, so you have:
</span>
L=3W
3. When you substitute L=3W and P=320, into P=2L+2W, you obtain:
P=2L+2W
320=2(3W)+2W
320=6W+2W
8W=320
W=320/8
W=40 feet
4. The barn forms one end of the rectangle. Therefore the linear feet of fence (x) is:
x=P-W
x=320 feet-40 feet
x=280 feet

How many linear feet of fence must he buy?

The answer is: 280 feet
The midpoint between the two points are (0,1/2)

Answer: 9/50</h3>
Explanation:
Any percentage converts to that number over 100.
So 18% would convert to 18/100
We then reduce the fraction by dividing each part by the GCF 2
18/2 = 9
100/2 = 50
The fraction 18/100 fully reduces to 9/50
To estimate this, round 53 to 50 and 12 to 10. 50 times 10 will be roughly what? 500. that is the estimated answer. the real answer is 636.
