Question 656351: Jarod is putting a fence around his square lot. He wants to put 20 posts on each side of his lot. This includes one post placed in each corner.
If he wants 20 on each side including the corners, then there must be 18 on each side that are NOT on the corners. 4 times 18 plus the 4 that are on the corners, or more simply put 19 X 4.
