Crystal wants to put a fence around her vegetable garden. Her garden is 5 ft wide and 4 ft long. She plans to put a post at each corner and at every foot. How many fence posts will Crystal need?
Perimeter of the fence is 2(l + w) = 2(5 + 4) = 2(9) = 18.
He will require 18 fence posts.
Answer:
18 fence posts.
Step-by-step explanation:
The dimensions of the garden are given as :
Length = 5 feet
Width = 4 feet
As Crystal plans to put a post at each corner and at every foot, so we will find the perimeter of the rectangle or fence.
Perimeter =\(2(5+4)\)
= 2*9 = 18 feet
So, 18 fence posts will be required.
