Tom built a fence around his rectangular shaped pool. The posts are 2 yards apart, there are 4 posts along the width and 8 posts along the length. What are the dimensions of the fence?

Respuesta :

There are 24 (2x8+2x4) posts around the pool with 4 overlaps, therefore, there are 20 posts in total.
Among the 8 posts along one side, there are 7 gaps in between them. Hence, the length is 2x7=14yards
Among the 4 posts on the other side, there are 3 gaps in between them. Hence, the width is 2x3=6 yards
