Answer: The distance around the lot is given by
[tex]4\frac{1}{20}\ miles[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Length of rectangular lot is given by
[tex]1\frac{1}{8}\\\\=\frac{9}{8}\ miles[/tex]
Width of rectangular lot is given by
[tex]\frac{9}{10}\ mile[/tex]
We need to find the distance around the lot.
As we know the formula for "Perimeter of rectangle":
[tex]Perimeter=2(Length+Width)\\\\Perimeter=2(\frac{9}{8}+\frac{9}{10})\\\\Perimeter=2(\frac{45+36}{40})\\\\Perimeter=2\times \frac{81}{40}\\\\Perimeter=\frac{81}{20}\\\\Perimeter=4\frac{1}{20}\ miles[/tex]
Hence, the distance around the lot is given by
[tex]4\frac{1}{20}\ miles[/tex]
Answer: The distance around the lot is 81/20 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to calculate the perimeter of the rectangular lot:
Perimeter = 2 width x 2 length
Replacing with the values given
P = 2(1 1/8) + 2( 9/10) = 9/4 + 9/5 = 81/20
The distance around the lot is 81/20 miles.
