Question

Jaylen is helping his mom make a fence for their rectangular vegetable garden. First, they measure the sides and find that it is 20 feet long and 40 feet wide. Then, they buy fencing from the hardware store. If the store sells fencing in 4-yard packages, how many packages do Jaylen and his mom need?
Please answer this. This is a question on IXL, by the way.

Answer 1

Answer:

10 packages

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of garden = 20 feet

Breadth of garden = 40 feet

( 4 yard = 12 feet )

Perimeter of garden = 2( l+b )

                                  = 2 ( 20+40 )

                                  = 120 feet

Number of packages needed = $\frac{Perimeter}{Length of fencing}$

                                                  = $\frac{120}{12}$ = 10 packages

Hope this answer helps you ! Please mark as the brainliest if it's correct.
