Question

Jamin wants to paint a wall in his bedroom. Not only does he need to buy paint, but he also needs to buy tape to tape off all sides of the wall and the window. How many feet of painter's tape will Jamin need to buy (assume no overlap)? [Note: The wall and window are both rectangular.]
17.5 ft
35 ft
28 ft
21 ft

Answer 1

I would say B.35 is the answer.

Answer 2

The perimeter of the walls is  6 + 6 + 8 + 8 = 28 feet.

The perimeter of the window is 2 + 2 + 1.5 + 1.5 = 7 feet.

Total = 28 + 7 = 35 feet of tape.
