This math topic focuses on calculating the perimeter of rectangles in various contexts, such as running around a park, fencing around a garden, or the border around paintings. These problems are intended to help develop and practice early skills in perimeter calculation. Each question presents a scenario with a visual diagram and multiple-choice answers to select the correct perimeter. The task involves comprehension of reading dimensions and applying the perimeter formula of adding all sides of a rectangle.
