ms plants wants to place a fence around a garden that measures 12 feet by 20 feet. how much fencing does she need for the perimeter of the garden.

You need to find the perimeter.

P = 2L + 2W
P = (2 * 20) + (2 * 12)
P = ?

40+24=64

Right! She needs 64 feet of fencing.

To find the perimeter of a rectangular garden, you need to add up the lengths of all four sides.

In this case, the garden measures 12 feet by 20 feet.

To calculate the perimeter, you can use the formula: P = 2 * (length + width), where P represents the perimeter, length represents one side of the rectangle, and width represents the other side.

For the given garden, the calculation would be: P = 2 * (12 ft + 20 ft).

Adding the values, we get: P = 2 * 32 ft = 64 ft.

Therefore, she will need 64 feet of fencing to enclose the perimeter of the garden.
