a rectangular sandbox has dimensions of 4 feet by 5 feet how many yards is the perimeter of the sandbox?

P = 2L + 2W

P = 8 + 10

P = 18 feet

18/3 = ______ yards

6ft

6 yards.

To find the perimeter of the sandbox, you need to add up the lengths of all sides. The sandbox has dimensions of 4 feet by 5 feet, so you have two sides that are 4 feet long and two sides that are 5 feet long.

To convert feet to yards, you need to divide the number of feet by 3 (since there are 3 feet in a yard). So, to convert 4 feet to yards, you divide 4 by 3, which gives you approximately 1.33 yards. To convert 5 feet to yards, you divide 5 by 3, which gives you approximately 1.67 yards.

Now, let's calculate the perimeter in yards. The two sides that are 4 feet long would be 1.33 yards each, so together they would be 1.33 + 1.33 = 2.66 yards. The two sides that are 5 feet long would be 1.67 yards each, so together they would be 1.67 + 1.67 = 3.34 yards.

To find the perimeter, you add up all four sides: 2.66 + 3.34 + 2.66 + 3.34 = 13 yards.

Therefore, the perimeter of the sandbox is approximately 13 yards.
