Question

A rectangular garden has jogging track of width 30 metres. Length of the garden is 46metres and breadth is 34 metres. If there is a wire compound on both sides of the track. Find the total length of wire compound

Answer 1

Dimension of the inner perimeter:

Length = 46 m

Breadth = 34 m

Dimension of the outer perimeter:

Length = 46+ 30 + 30

Length = 106 m

Breadth = 34 + 30 + 30

Breadth = 94 m

Find the perimeter:

Total perimeter = 2(34 + 46) + 2(106 + 94)

Total perimeter = 560 m

Answer: The total length of the wire is 560 m
