The expression to find the perimeter of a rectangle is 2(length + width). What is the perimeter, in units, of a rectangle of len
gth fraction 1 over 3 unit and width fraction 1 over 2 unit? fraction 2 over 5 unit
fraction 4 over 5 unit
fraction 1 and 1 over 3 units
fraction 1 and 2 over 3 units
First you plug in the data to the formula. So it will be 2(1/3+1/2). You then want to add the fractions together but must first find the common denominator which will be 6. So it is 2(2/6+3/6). The fractions then add up to be 5/6. So all you have to do is multiply it by 2 to get 5/3 which simplifies to 1 2/3 so it is D.
