Question

A farmer wants to plant shrubs along the edges of this rectangle piece of land. The dimensions of land are 34.5m x 13.5m. He wants to plant the shrubs at 1.5m intervals. He is planning to have one shrub at each corner of the land. How many shrubs will be planted? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

64 shrubs will be planted.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of shrubs be x

Interval between each shrub = 1.5 m

Perimeter = 2(L+B) = 2(34.5+13.5) = 2 × 48 = 96 m

Therefore, 1.5 × x = 96 m

Or, 1.5x = 96 m

Or, 15x/10 = 96 m

Or, 3x/2 = 96 m

Or, 3x = 96 × 2

Or, x = 96 × 2 / 3 = 32 × 2 = 64.(answer).
