there is 40 feet of fencing its 8 feet in with what is the length

Answer 1

To find the length of the fencing, you can use the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle:

Perimeter = 2*(Length + Width)

The width is given as 8 feet, and the total perimeter is given as 40 feet. Therefore, we have:

40 = 2*(Length + 8)

Divide both sides of the equation by 2:

20 = Length + 8

Subtract 8 from both sides:

Length = 20 - 8

Length = 12 feet

So, the length of the fencing is 12 feet.
