Question

A rectangular flowerbed has a length of 8.03 metres and a width of 2.93 metres.

a) Work out an estimate of the area of the flowerbed.

b) Work out an estimate of the perimeter of the flowerbed.

please help me, i really need it

Answer 1

Length of flower bed=8.03 m
Width of flower bed=2.93 m

Area of rectangle=length * breadth
=8.03*2.93
19.0739

Perimeter of rectangle =2(l+b)
=2(8.03+2.93)
=2*10.96=21.92

Answer 2

Explanation:

a) Length = 8.03 m

Estimated length = 8 m

Width = 2.93 m

Estimated width = 3 m

Estimated area of flowerbed = 8 * 3 = 24 square meter

b) Estimated perimeter = 2*(length + width)

= 2 *(8 + 3)

= 2* 11

= 22 m
