Question

Ben needs to replace two sides of his fence. One side is 367 9/100 meters long, and the other is 329 3/10 meters long. How much fence does Ben need to buy?

Answer 1

Answer:

$696\frac{39}{100}$ meters fence

Step-by-step explanation:

Ben needs to replace two sides of his fence.

The length of one side of fence =  $367\frac{9}{100}$ meters

The length of other side of fence = $329\frac{3}{10}$ meters

to calculate the length of fence that Ben need to buy we will add the length of both sides.

$367\frac{9}{100}$ + $329\frac{3}{10}$

= $\frac{36709}{100}$ + $\frac{3293}{10}$

= $\frac{36709+32930}{100}$

= $\frac{69639}{100}$

= $696\frac{39}{100}$ meters

Ben need to buy  $696\frac{39}{100}$ meters fence.
