Options:
A .  95
B .  92
C .  88
D .  82
Answer: Option C
Answer : Option C
Explanation :
Given that area of the field = 680 sq. feet => lb = 680 sq. feet Length(l) = 20 feet => 20 × b = 680
$MF#%\Rightarrow b = \dfrac{680}{20} = 34\text{ feet}$MF#%
Required length of the fencing = l + 2b = 20 + (2 × 34) = 88 feet
