Katie cut out a piece of wrapping paper that was 2 times as long and 3times as wide as the box that she was wrapping.The box was 5 inches long and 4 inches wide. What is the perimeter of the wrapping paper that Katie cut?



Answer :

10+10+12+12
44 inches
Length = 2 × box
Length = 2 × 5 = 10

Width = 3 × box
Width = 3 × 4 = 12

Perimeter = (2 × Length) + (2 × Width)
Perimeter = (2 × 10) + (2 × 12)
Perimeter = 20 + 24
Perimeter = 44

44 inches
