Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 48 \ meters }}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths.
A rectangle has 4 sides: 2 lengths and 2 widths, so the perimeter formula is
[tex]p= 2l+2w[/tex]
The length is 20 meters and the width is 4 meters.
[tex]p= 2(20 \ m )+ 2(4 \ m )[/tex]
Multiply.
[tex]p= 40 \ m + 8 \ m[/tex]
Add.
[tex]p= 48 m[/tex]
The perimeter of the rectangle is 48 meters.
