Question

Part A:
Hailey has a rectangular bedspread that measures 890 cm by 2891 cm. She wants to sew a fringe around the edge of the bedspread. What length of fringe does hailey need to buy

Part B:
Hailey gets a new bedspread that is 66 centimeters longer. What length of new fringe does Hailey need for the longer bedspread?

Answer 1

Answer:

A) Length of bedspread = 890 cm

    Breadth of bedspread = 2891 cm

    length of frige required = perimeter of bedspread = 2*(length+breadth)

                                                                                        = 2*(890+2891)

                                                                                        = 7562 cm

B) Length of new bedspread = 890+66 cm = 956 cm

     length of frige required = perimeter of new bedspread

     = 2*(length+breadth)

     = 2*(956+2891)

     = 7694 cm

Answer 2

Part A:

Given that:

• Hailey has a rectangular bedspread that measures 890 cm by 2891 cm.
• She wants to sew a fringe around the edge of the bedspread.

To Find:

• What length of fringe does Hailey need to buy?

We know that:

• P = 2(L + B)

Where,

• P = Perimeter of a rectangle
• L = Length of a rectangle
• B = Breadth of a rectangle

We have:

• Length = 2891 cm
• Breadth = 890 cm

Finding the length of fringe:

↠ P = 2(2891 + 890)

↠ P = 2(3781)

↠ P = 7562

Hence,

• Hailey needs to buy 7562 cm of fringe.

Part B:

Given that:

• Hailey gets a new bedspread that is 66 centimeters longer.

To Find:

• What length of new fringe does Hailey need for the longer bedspread?

Here we have:

• New length = (2891 + 66) cm
• New length = 2957 cm
• Breadth = 890 cm

Finding the length of new fringe:

↠ P = 2(2957 + 890)

↠ P = 2(3847)

↠ P = 7694

Hence,

• Hailey needs 7694 cm of new fringe for the longer bedspread.
