A table top measures 2 m 25 cm by 1 m 50 cm. What is the perimeter of the tabletop?

To find the perimeter of the tabletop, you'll add up the lengths of all four sides.

The tabletop measures 2 meters 25 centimeters by 1 meter 50 centimeters.

First, convert the measurements to the same unit, either meters or centimeters. In this case, I'll use centimeters.

2 meters 25 centimeters = (2 * 100 cm) + 25 cm = 225 cm 1 meter 50 centimeters = (1 * 100 cm) + 50 cm = 150 cm

Now, calculate the perimeter:

Perimeter = 2 * (Length + Width) Perimeter = 2 * (225 cm + 150 cm) Perimeter = 2 * 375 cm Perimeter = 750 cm

So, the perimeter of the tabletop is 750 centimeters i.e 7.5 meters
