a school playground is in the shape of a rectangle 700 feet long and 200 feet wide. if fencing cost 20 dollars per yards what will it cost to place fencing around the playground

math - Ms. Sue, Wednesday, January 11, 2012 at 7:29pm
P = 2L + 2W

P = 2(700) + 2(200)

P = 1400 + 400 = 1800 feet

1 yard = 3 feet

1800/3 = 600 yards

600 * $20 = $______
