Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
length of rectangular plot, l = 60m
breadth of rectangular plot, b = 30m
fencing of plot with 1 round of wire = 2(l+b)
= 2(60+30)
= 2×90
= 180m
fencing of plot with 3 rounds of wire = 3×180
. = 540m
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Length and breadth of the rectangular plot are 60 m and 30 m respectively. It is to be fenced 3 rounds of wire.
To find : Length of wire required
Solution :
We know that fencing is done on the boundary of the plot, this implies that we have to find out the length of 3 times of the boundary of the rectangular plot.
Boundary of a field is called it's perimeter. We know that perimeter of the rectangle is sum of all it's side.
So the required length of wire = 3 × Perimeter
Length of wire = 3 × [ 2 ( length + breadth ) ]
Length of wire = 3 × [ 2 ( 60 m + 30 m ) ]
Length of wire = 3 × [ 2 ( 90 m ) ]
Length of wire = 3 × [ 180 m ]
Length of wire = 540 m
So the required length of wire needed to fence 3 times around rectangular park is 540 m .
