Question 873523: Mr.Duarte's garden is 12 ft wide and 24 ft long. What is the area of his garden? If he were to put a fence around the perimeter, how much fence would he need? Answer by harpazo(655) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A = length times width
A = 24 x 12
A = 288 ft^2
Area is 288 square feet.
P = 2(length) + 2(wudth)
P = 2(24) + 2(12)
P = 48 + 24
P = 72 feet.
The perimeter is 72 feet.
