Question

The dimensions of a rectangular plot of land are 23.5m and 16.8m. Find the area of the plot. If the entire plot is to be fenced, what is the length of the wire required?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the give condition

Area of rectangle - lb

L( length) = 23.5m

B (length)= 16.8m

Area = (23.5×16.8) (m×m)

= 433.4 m²

Answer 2

Answer:

394.8$m^{2}$ and 80.6m

Step-by-step explanation:

area of the plot = (length × width) of the plot

                          = 23.5m × 16.8m

                          =  $394.8 m^{2}$

length of the wire to be fenced around the plot= 2(length + width)

                          = 2 (23.5 + 16.8)

                          = 2 (40.3)

                          = 2 × 40.3

                          = 80.6 m
