Explanation:

Carrots

Step1: Identify the sides

The patch for carrots has length \(6\)m and width \(2\)m (same as tomatoes' width).
Perimeter formula for rectangle \(P = 2\times(l + w)\)

Step2: Calculate the perimeter

\(P=(6 + 2+6 + 2)\text{m}=16\text{m}\)

Beans

Step1: Identify the sides

The patch for beans has length \(2\)m and width \(5\)m.
Perimeter formula for rectangle \(P = 2\times(l + w)\)

Step2: Calculate the perimeter

\(P=(2 + 5+2 + 5)\text{m}=14\text{m}\)

Cabbages

Step1: Identify the sides

The patch for cabbages has length \(4\)m (same as tomatoes' length) and width \(3\)m.
Perimeter formula for rectangle \(P = 2\times(l + w)\)

Step2: Calculate the perimeter

\(P=(4 + 3+4 + 3)\text{m}=14\text{m}\)

Potatoes

Step1: Identify the sides

The patch for potatoes has length \(6\)m (same as carrots' length) and width \(3\)m (same as cabbages' width).
Perimeter formula for rectangle \(P = 2\times(l + w)\)

Step2: Calculate the perimeter

\(P=(6 + 3+6 + 3)\text{m}=18\text{m}\)

Entire garden

Step1: Identify the sides

The entire garden has length \(12\)m and width \(5\)m.
Perimeter formula for rectangle \(P = 2\times(l + w)\)

Step2: Calculate the perimeter

\(P=(12 + 5+12 + 5)\text{m}=34\text{m}\)

Answer:

• Carrots perimeter: \(16\)m
• Beans perimeter: \(14\)m
• Cabbages perimeter: \(14\)m
• Potatoes perimeter: \(18\)m
• Entire garden perimeter: \(34\)m
