Tirzah wants to put a fence around her garden. She has 22 yards Of fence material. Does she have enough to go all the way around the garden? 4 8/12 6 9/12

Respuesta :

No.  She needs at least 31 yards of material.

The length of fence around the garden is the perimeter of the garden

She does not have enough to go all the way around the garden

The dimension of the fence is given as:

[tex]4\frac 8{12}[/tex] by [tex]6\frac 9{12}[/tex]

So, the perimeter of the fence is:

[tex]p = 2 * (4\frac 8{12} + 6\frac 9{12})[/tex]

Add the fractions

[tex]p = 2 * (11\frac {5}{12})[/tex]

Expand

[tex]p = 22\frac {10}{12}[/tex]

The perimeter of the fence is greater than 22 yards.

Hence, she does not have enough to go all the way around the garden
