Question

A restaurant has square dining tables.they will place table settings on each table so that there is a distance of 2 feet from each corner to a table setting. The 3 table settings on each side will be 3 feet apart. What is the perimeter of one table?

Answer 1

Answer:

Perimeter = 12ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the distance between the table and each corner of the table setting is 2feets it implies the table settings is place at the center of each table.

Since the table settings is at the center of the table and each table settings are 3feets apart, it implies that distance from table setting to the end of the table will be 3ft/2 = 1.5ft

If half length of the table is 1.5ft

Length = 2 x 1.5ft = 3ft

Formular for perimeter of a square = 4L

Perimeter = 4 x 3 = 12ft
