i am trying to find the perimeter. side = 2 yd side = 10 in side = 31 km side = 11 m

Add the sides to get perimeter. You will have to change them to the same units, I recommend meters.
How do you use approximation to tell which fraction is greater?
To find the perimeter, you need to add up the lengths of all the sides of the shape.
Given:
- One side is 2 yards long.
- One side is 10 inches long.
- One side is 31 kilometers long.
- One side is 11 meters long.
To find the perimeter, let's convert all the lengths to a consistent unit. Let's convert the yards, inches, kilometers, and meters to a common unit such as meters.
1 yard = 0.9144 meters
1 inch = 0.0254 meters
1 kilometer = 1000 meters
Now let's convert the side lengths:
- The first side is 2 yards, which is equal to 2 * 0.9144 = 1.8288 meters.
- The second side is 10 inches, which is equal to 10 * 0.0254 = 0.254 meters.
- The third side is 31 kilometers, which is equal to 31 * 1000 = 31000 meters.
- The fourth side is 11 meters.
Now that we have all the side lengths in the same units (meters), we can calculate the perimeter by adding them up:
Perimeter = 1.8288 + 0.254 + 31000 + 11 = 31012.0828 meters.
So, the perimeter of the shape is approximately 31012.0828 meters.
