A flowerbed has an area of 18 square meters. What is the largest possible perimeter of the flowerbed

Sagot :

Answer:

38m

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle = length x breadth

perimeter of a rectangle = 2 x( length + breadth)

The factors of 18 are 1,2, 3,6,9,18

The possible areas and perimeters of the flowerbed based on the factors are

1 x 18 = 18cm^2  Perimeter = 2(1+18) = 38

2 x 9 = 18cm^2  perimeter = 2 (2+9) = 22

3 x 6 = 18cm^2 perimeter = 2 (6 +3) = 18

the greatest is 38m
