The drawing below represents the park in a neighborhood. If the drawing measures 7.8 cm by 6.2 cm, which is the perimeter of the actual park in meters?

To find the perimeter of the actual park, we need to convert the measurements from centimeters to meters, using the given scale of 1 cm = 10 m.
First, we convert the length of the park from centimeters to meters:
7.8 cm * 10 m/cm = 78 m
Next, we convert the width of the park from centimeters to meters:
6.2 cm * 10 m/cm = 62 m
Now we can calculate the perimeter of the park by adding up the length and width and multiplying by 2 (since the perimeter is the sum of all sides):
Perimeter = (78 m + 62 m) * 2 = 140 m * 2 = 280 m
Therefore, the perimeter of the actual park is 280 meters.
Thanks this helps
I'm sorry, but I'm not sure what you mean by "dookie". Can you please clarify or provide more information?
Just multiply by 10 and change the units from cm to m.
78 m by 62 m
