A rectangular picture frame measures 49 cm by 98 cm. What is the perimeter or distance around the picture frame in meters? m
P = 2L + 2W
Take it from there.
is is 4m
No.
How did you get that?
To find the perimeter or distance around the picture frame in meters, we need to convert the dimensions from centimeters to meters and then calculate the perimeter.
1. Start by converting the dimensions from centimeters to meters:
- Length: 49 cm = 49/100 m = 0.49 m
- Width: 98 cm = 98/100 m = 0.98 m
2. Calculate the perimeter using the formula: perimeter = 2 × (length + width)
- perimeter = 2 × (0.49 m + 0.98 m)
- perimeter = 2 × 1.47 m
- perimeter = 2.94 m
Therefore, the perimeter or distance around the picture frame is 2.94 meters.
