Hi im trying to help my daughter figure out the area and perimeter of her bdrm which is 11'3 * 17'
P = 2L + 2W
P = (2 * 17) + (2 * 11.25)
A = LW
A = 17 * 11.25
To find the area and perimeter of a room, you need to know the dimensions of the room (length and width). In this case, you mentioned that the bedroom has dimensions of 11'3" (11 feet 3 inches) and 17'.
To find the area of a rectangle (or a square), you multiply the length by the width. Therefore, to find the area of your daughter's bedroom, you will multiply 11'3" by 17'.
To get started, it's important to convert the measurements to a consistent unit. Since both dimensions are in feet, you won't need any conversion in this case. If you have measurements in different units, you will need to convert them to the same unit before performing calculations.
Now, let's calculate the area:
11'3" * 17' = (11 + 3/12) * 17 = (11.25) * 17 = 191.25 square feet
So, the area of your daughter's bedroom is 191.25 square feet.
To find the perimeter of a rectangle, you add up all the sides. In this case, the bedroom has two sides measuring 11'3" and two sides measuring 17'.
To calculate the perimeter:
Perimeter = 2 * (11'3" + 17')
First, convert the dimensions to the same unit:
11'3" + 17' = 11.25 + 17 = 28.25 feet
Now, calculate the perimeter:
Perimeter = 2 * 28.25 = 56.5 feet
Therefore, the perimeter of your daughter's bedroom is 56.5 feet.
