First you plug in the data to the formula. So it will be 2(1/3+1/2). You then want to add the fractions together but must first find the common denominator which will be 6. So it is 2(2/6+3/6). The fractions then add up to be 5/6. So all you have to do is multiply it by 2 to get 5/3 which simplifies to 1 2/3 so it is D.

The perimeter is fractions 1 and 2 over 3 units.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 2(1/3+1/2).

The common denominator is 6 so it will be 2(2/6+3/6).

The fraction adds up to 5/6.

Multiplying by 2 we get 5/3 which is fractions 1 and 2 over 3 units.

What is the perimeter and area of the rectangle?

The perimeter P of a rectangle is given by the formula, P=2l+2w, where l is the length and w is the width of the rectangle. The area A of a rectangle is given by the formula, A=lw, where l is the length and w is the width.
