a picture is completely surrounded by a border 5cm wide
if the picture is 20cm long and 18cm wide what is the width of the frame,
what is the length of the frame
what is the area of the picture and the frame
:
A 5 cm frame will add 10 cm to the length and the width to the picture dimensions
20+10 = 30 cm is the length of the frame
18+10 = 28 cm is the width of the frame
:
30 * 28 = 840 sq/cm is area of the pic and frame
