To find out how much fencing is needed for a rectangular playground, you need to calculate the perimeter of the rectangle using the formula:

\[ \text{Perimeter} = 2 \times (\text{length} + \text{width}) \]

In this case:

  • Width = 75.23 meters
  • Length = 105.55 meters

Now, let's calculate the perimeter:

\[ \text{Perimeter} = 2 \times (105.55 + 75.23) \] \[ = 2 \times 180.78 \] \[ = 361.56 \text{ meters} \]

The amount of fencing needed is 361.56 meters.
