Question

Elise built a large rectangular vegetable garden that is 9 meters long and has an area of 72 square meters.

Answer 1

Answer:

34 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of a rectangular vegetable garden = 9 metres

Area of rectangular vegetable garden = 72 square meters

To find: perimeter of Elise's vegetable garden

Solution:

Area of rectangular vegetable garden = $72\,\,m^2$

Length × breadth = 72

9 × breadth = 72

breadth $=\frac{72}{9}=8\,\,m$

Perimeter of rectangular vegetable garden = 2(Length + breadth)

=2(9+8)

=2(17)

=34 m
