1 Hector puts a fence around his rectangular

garden that is 14 feet long and 10 feet

wide. How much fence does Hector use?

Hector uses

feet.

48 feet of fence

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle has 4 sides, the parallel sides are equal to each other in length.

If Hector used 14 feet of fence on the long side, he used 28 feet in total for both long sides.

If Hector used 10 feet for the width/short side, he used 20 feet in total for both short sides.

Put simply: (14 x 2) + (10 x 2) = 48 feet of fence in total
