Answer:

[tex] P \geq 1000 \; meters [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Length = 312 meters

Breadth = 186 meters

To find the perimeter of the rectangle;

Mathematically, the perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula;

Perimeter = 2(L + W)

Perimeter = 2(312 + 186)

Perimeter = 2(498)

Perimeter = 996 meters

To the nearest meters, we have;

Perimeter = 996 ≈ 1000 meters

Let P represent the perimeter of a rectangular field.

900 < P > 1000

Therefore, [tex] P \geq 1000 \; meters[/tex]
