Question

A wooden fence is to be built around a 48 m-by-64 m lot. How many meters of fencing will be needed? If the wood for the fence costs $42.50 per meter, what will the wood for the fence cost?


a; 224 m, $9,520.00

b; 222 m, $9,435.00

c; 224 m, $9,435.00

d; 222 m, $9,520.00

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

length = 48

breadth = 64

perimeter = 2 ( l + b )

= 2 ( 48 + 64 )

= 2 × 112 = 224 m

cost of fencing per metre = $42.50

so, cost of fencing 224 m = 224 × 42.50

= $9,520.00

hence option A is correct
