Question 1108749: A garden is 40 ft. 6 in. in length, and 30 ft. 3 in. in width. Calculate number of feet of boards to enclose it with a fence (boards placed sides touching) 7 ft. 6 in. high.
Length * Width = Area
40.5 * 30. 25 = 1225.125 sq. ft.
Unsure from here. Non-homework.
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A garden is 40 ft. 6 in. in length, and 30 ft. 3 in. in width.
Calculate number of feet of boards to enclose it with a fence (boards placed sides touching) 7 ft. 6 in. high.
:
The length of a fence will be the perimeter; P = 2L + 2W
P = 2(40.5) + 2(30.25)
P = 141.5 ft is the perimeter
:
I assume they want to know the total area of the boards that will be in this fence
Area = the length of the fence * the height
A = 141.5 * 7.5
A = 1061.25 sq ft
