Answer 2

Answer:

£57.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :The pen must have a perimeter of 24 m

Every half meter of fencing costs him £1.20

To Find : Work out the cost of the fence used to make the sheep pen.

Solution :

Cost of fencing 0.5 m = £1.20

Cost of fencing 1 m = $\frac{1.20}{0.5}=2.4$

The pen must have a perimeter of 24 m

So, cost of fencing 24 m = $2.4 \times 24 = 57.6$

Hence the cost of the fence used to make the sheep pen is £57.6
