Question

Fencing costs $10 per foot. Frances had a rectangular garden that is 4 feet wide and 5 feet long. How much money will Frances need to spend to put fence around the garden?

Answer 1

Answer:

$180

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the perimeter: 2w + 2L

    2(4) = 8 + 2(5) = 10

     8 + 10 = 18 feet of fencing

2. multiply the cost per foot (10) by the number of feet (18)

    10*18 = 180
