Question 1013398: the rectangular piece of land measures 0.8 dm by 0.5 dm. it is to be fenced with 4 lines of wire. what length of wire is neended? Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If I understand the problem, we need four perimeters of wire...
The perimeter P = 2L + 2W = 2(.8 dm) + 2(.5 dm) = 2.6 dm
Four times that is
4P = 4(2.6 dm) = 10.4 dm of wire
