A rectangular school yard 280 m by 245 m is to be fenced. How many metres of

fencing will be required to fence it completely?

P = 2L + 2W

P = 2(280) + 2(245)

P = _______ meters

280+280=560

245+245=490
560+490=1,050

Rectangular school yard 280 meters by 245 meters is to be fenced, how many meters of fencing will be required to fence it completely

Ah, the ole' rectangular school yard! Well, let's break out those math skills. To find the perimeter (the amount of fencing required), we just add up all the sides. So, for this school yard, it would be 280 + 245 + 280 + 245 = 1050 meters of fencing! That's enough to keep those mischievous students in check.

To find the amount of fencing required to completely fence a rectangular schoolyard, we need to calculate the perimeter of the yard. The perimeter is the total distance around the yard.

In this case, the rectangular schoolyard has a length of 280 m and a width of 245 m. To calculate the perimeter, we use the formula:

Perimeter = 2 * (Length + Width)

Plugging in the values:

Perimeter = 2 * (280 m + 245 m)

Perimeter = 2 * 525 m

Perimeter = 1050 m

Therefore, 1050 meters of fencing will be required to fence the rectangular schoolyard completely.
