Simply look up the numbers in the pictures.

+5,  - 8 , + 2  1/2,  - 6  1/4,  - 3/4

Since we are not interested if it is East or West we ignore the + or - sign.

We only add up the sizes.

So we take the modulus of each number and add to the modulus of the next.

So the answer is:

|5 | + |-8 | + | 2  1/2| + |-6 1/4| + |-3/4|

Option C is the best answer. Though it ignored the minus sign.

1. P = 2(9) + 2(4.5)
P = 18 + 9
P = 27 m

2. P = 5.2(2) + 1.3(2)
P = 10.4 + 2.6
P = 13 ft

3. P = 12.9(2) + 4.7(2)
P = 25.8 + 9.4
P = 35.2 cm
