Question

A school is building a basketball court for its students. The length of the court is 31 1/8 feet. The width of the court is 25 1/2 feet. What is the perimeter of the basketball court?

Answer 1

Answer:

113 1/4 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

P = (L+W) × 2

P = (31 1/6+25 1/5) × 2

P = 56.625 × 2

P = 113.25 = 113 1/4 ft.

Answer 2

Answer:

113.25 or 113 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

31 1/8 x 2 = 62 2/8

25 1/2 x 2 = 51

2/8 = 0.25

62.25 + 51 = 113.25
