Answer:
Most likely Perimeter of the pad is 42 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the Cement pad = 108 feet²
Length of the dumpster = 9 ft
Width of the dumpster = 8 ft
Cement pad surface is greater than dumpster to hold it.
Area of pad = 108 ft²
length × width = 108
we choose length and width such that they are greater than length and width of the dumpster.
So, length of the pad = 12 ft
Width of the pad = 9 ft
Thus, Perimeter = 2 × (length + width) = 2 × ( 12 + 9 ) = 2 × 21 = 42 ft
Therefore, Most likely Perimeter of the pad is 42 ft.
