A triangular garden has sides that measure 6 1/4 feet, 7 1/2 feet, and 6 5/6 feet. What is the perimeter of the garden?

20 feet 7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We can separate the fractions and wholes for the minute. 6+7+6= 19

Then we can go on to the fractions a foot is 12 inches. We are given the fractions 1/4, 1/2, &5/6.

1/4 of 12 is 3 as 12 divided by 4 is 3. (3 inches)

1/2 of 12 is 6 as 12 divided by 2 is 6 . ( 6inches)

5/6 of 12 is 10 as 12 divided by 6 then multiplied by 5 is 10. (10 inches)

Because it'd be a bit weird to provide the answer 9 feet and 19 inches we have to convert the 19 inches from the fractions to feet. Since one foot is 12 inches we know that we can take one foot from the 19 inches from the fractions provided with 7 inches left. With that, the final answer is 10 feet and 7 inches.
