Haley buys a frame for her photo. If the photo is 5 inches x 7 inches, and the frame is 3/4 of an inch wide on all sides of the frame, what is the perimeter of the frame?

Respuesta :

Answer:

the perimeter of the frame = 17.98 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The photo is 5 inches x 7 inches.

The size of the frame is 3/4 the size of photo implies that:

Length of the frame = 3/4 × 7 = 21/4 = 5.24 inches.

Width of the frame = 3/4 × 5 = 15/4 = 3.75 inches.

Hence,

the perimeter of the frame = 2 ( 5.24 + 3.75) = 2(8.99) = 17.98 inches
