Question

A rectangular sand box has a length of 5 1/3 feet and a width of 3 3/4 feet. What is the perimeter in mixed number?

Answer 1

Answer: 18 1/6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that the rectangular sand box has a length of 5 1/3 feet and a width of 3 3/4 feet.

The perimeter would be calculated as:

= 2(length + width)

= 2( 5 1/3 + 3 3/4)

= 2( 5 4/12 + 3 9/12)

= 2( 8 13/12)

= 2 (9 1/12)

= 2 × 9 1/12

= 2 × 109/12

= 218/12

= 18 2/12

= 18 1/6 feet
