5<strong>📐 Perimeter Puzzle ⭐</strong><br><br>A rectangular pool deck is 3 times as long as it is wide. The width is 6 meters.<br><br><strong>What is the perimeter of the pool deck?</strong>

Show answer & explanation
Answer: 48
Length = 6×3=18 meters. Perimeter = 2×(18+6)=2×24=48 meters.

6Which rectangle has an area of 36 square feet but the smallest perimeter?

Show answer & explanation
Answer: Length=6 ft, Width=6 ft
<p><strong>Correct Answer: Length = 6 ft, Width = 6 ft (the square!)</strong></p><ol><li>All four rectangles have <span style='background:#fef08a; padding:2px 6px; border-radius:4px; font-weight:bold;'>area = 36 sq ft</span>. We need the one with the <strong>smallest perimeter</strong>.</li><li>Calculate each perimeter: A (36×1): P = 2(36+1) = <strong>74 ft</strong>. B (12×3): P = 2(12+3) = <strong>30 ft</strong>. C (9×4): P = 2(9+4) = <strong>26 ft</strong>. D (6×6): P = 2(6+6) = <strong>24 ft</strong>.</li><li>Smallest perimeter = <span style='background:#bbf7d0; padding:2px 6px; border-radius:4px; font-weight:bold;'>24 ft</span> — the 6×6 square!</li><li>The closer a rectangle is to a square shape, the smaller its perimeter for the same area.</li></ol><div style='background:#dbeafe; border-left:4px solid #3b82f6; padding:10px 14px; border-radius:6px; margin-top:10px;'><strong>Remember:</strong> For a fixed area, the square always has the smallest perimeter of all rectangles!</div>

7A school district orders 56 cases of textbooks. Each case holds 24 books. The district has 7 schools and wants to split the books equally. How many books will each school receive, and how many will be left over?

Show answer & explanation

<p><strong>Correct Answer: 192 books each, 0 left over</strong></p><ol><li>Total books: 56 × 24 = 1,344.</li><li>Per school: 1,344 ÷ 7 = <span style='background:#bbf7d0;padding:2px 6px;border-radius:4px;font-weight:bold;'>192</span>, remainder 0.</li></ol><div style='background:#dbeafe;border-left:4px solid #3b82f6;padding:10px 14px;border-radius:6px;margin-top:10px;'><strong>Remember:</strong> Divide total by number of schools to find equal share!</div>

8What is the quotient when 295 is divided by 6?

Show answer & explanation
Answer: 49 R1
Divide: 295 ÷ 6. Since 6 × 49 = 294 and 295 − 294 = 1, the quotient is 49 with a remainder of 1. The remainder 1 is less than the divisor 6, so the division is complete.

9Draw all lines of symmetry for a rectangle that is NOT a square. How many are there?

Show answer & explanation
Answer: 2
<p><strong>Correct Answer: 2 lines of symmetry</strong></p><ol><li>A rectangle (not a square) has two different side lengths.</li><li><strong>Line 1 — Vertical:</strong> a line through the midpoints of the top and bottom sides splits the rectangle into two equal halves ✓.</li><li><strong>Line 2 — Horizontal:</strong> a line through the midpoints of the left and right sides also splits it into two equal halves ✓.</li><li>Diagonal lines do <em>not</em> work for a non-square rectangle — if you fold diagonally, the corners do not line up.</li><li>Total: <span style='background:#bbf7d0; padding:2px 6px; border-radius:4px; font-weight:bold;'>2 lines of symmetry</span>. (A square has 4 because diagonals work too!)</li></ol><div style='background:#dbeafe; border-left:4px solid #3b82f6; padding:10px 14px; border-radius:6px; margin-top:10px;'><strong>Remember:</strong> A non-square rectangle has exactly 2 lines of symmetry — one vertical, one horizontal through the midpoints!</div>

105 1/3 − 2 2/3 = ?

Show answer & explanation
Answer: 2 2/3
<p><strong>Correct Answer: 2 2/3</strong></p><ol><li>Borrow 1 whole since 1/3 < 2/3: 5 1/3 = 4 4/3.</li><li>Fractions: 4/3 − 2/3 = 2/3.</li><li>Wholes: 4 − 2 = 2.</li><li>Total: <span style='background:#bbf7d0;padding:2px 6px;border-radius:4px;font-weight:bold;'>2 2/3</span>.</li></ol><div style='background:#dbeafe;border-left:4px solid #3b82f6;padding:10px 14px;border-radius:6px;margin-top:10px;'><strong>Remember:</strong> Borrow a whole when the fraction part is too small!</div>
