How much cost to fence the whole lot?

Question

A rectangular lot measures 44 meters length and 38 meters width. If the cost of the fence is 500 pesos per span of 2 meters, how much cost to fence the whole lot? Show your solution. My answer is 41,000 pesos

Answer 1

Total length in meters:

2(44 + 38) = 164

Divide by length of a span:

164 / 2 = 82

Multiply by pesos per span:

500(82) = 41,000 pesos

Your answer is correct.
