How many posts does it take to support a fence around a square field measuring 200ft on a side if posts are placed every 20ft

1 answer

200*4/20 = 40

If it were a straight 200 feet you would need 41 because you need one at the end but if it is a closed yard you only need as many posts as gaps to fill.
