Caroline Khoo's answer to I.A's Primary 6 Maths Measurement Singapore question.
Could we use units instead?
Perimeter = 6 units
Length + breadth + length + breadth = 6 units
Length + breadth = 3 units
Breadth = 1 unit
Length = 2 units
2 units = 12 cm
1 unit = 6 cm
so area is 12 x 6 = 72 cm2.
Length + breadth + length + breadth = 6 units
Length + breadth = 3 units
Breadth = 1 unit
Length = 2 units
2 units = 12 cm
1 unit = 6 cm
so area is 12 x 6 = 72 cm2.
