Question

The dimensions of a rectanglar sheet of metal are 9.96m by 5.08m

Find
The perimeter of the metal, correct to 1 significant figure

Answer 1

• Length of the metal sheet = 9.96 m

• Breadth of the metal sheet = 5.08 m

As we know that,

★ Perimeter of rectangle = 2(length + breadth)

→ Perimeter of sheet = 2(9.96 + 5.08) m

→ Perimeter of sheet = 2(15.04) m

→ Perimeter of sheet = 30.08 m

Therefore, perimeter of the rectangular sheet is 30.08 m.
