Hank's vegetable garden measure 8 feet long and 6 feet wide. He starts at one corner and plants marigold along the edge . The Marigolds are 1 foot apart. How Many marigolds does he plant?

How many marigold can hank plant 1 ft. apart if his garden is 8 ft long and 6feet widw if he stars at one co
The formula for that would be (w+1)(l+1)


so 9*7=63 marigolds
Reply:~If you can't figure it out mathmatically, draw a chart. Given you are only planting along the edge, and assuming you are only planting one in each corner, think perimeter as adusted for the corners. Obviously, you won't have anywheres near 63.
