A rectangular flower garden measures 3 yard 1 foot 8 inches wide and 1 yard 2 feet 3 inches long. How many inches of fencing I needed to enclose the entire flower garden?
width: 3 yards 1 foot 8 inches length: 1 yard 2 feet 3 inches Multiply by 2 because there are 2 sides of widths and 2 sides of lengths for rectangles(if you get what I mean) 6 yards 2 feet 16 inches 2 yards 4 feet 6 inches Add together 8 yards 6 feet 22 inches 1 yard=36 inches; 8 yards=288 inches 1 foot=12 inches; 6 feet=72 inches 288+72+22=382 inches You need 382 inches of fencing to enclose the entire flower garden
