The length of the rectangular section is 6m 4 dm and the width is half the length

The length of the rectangular section is 6m 4 dm and the width is half the length around this section built a fence find the length of the fence.

A rectangular section is given.

Length = 6 m 4 in.

1) Find the width of the rectangle if the width is half the length.

6 m 4 dm * 1/2 = (6 m + 4 dm) / 2 = 6/2 m + 4/2 dm = 3 m + 2 dm = 3 m 2 dm.

2) Find the length of the fence around the site.

Find the perimeter of the rectangle.

P = 2 * (a + b) = 2 * (6 m 4 dm + 3 m 2 dm) = 2 * (6 m + 4 dm + 3 m + 2 dm) = 2 * (9 m + 6 dm) = 2 * 9 m + 2 * 6 dm = 18 m + 12 dm = 18 m + 10 dm + 2 dm = 18 m + 1 m + 2 dm = 19 m + 2 dm = 19 m 2 dm.

This means that the length of the fence around the site is 19 m 2 dm.
