The perimeter of the playground is 361.56. So, 361.56 meters of fencing is needed.

What is a rectangle?

In geometry, a rectangle is a 2-dimensional shape with four sides and four corners. Its two sides come together at right angles. Let a be the length and b be the width of a rectangle. Then the perimeter of the rectangle is 2(a+b).

How to solve this problem?

Given that the rectangular playground is 75.23 meters wide and 105.55 meters long. To find the amount of fencing, we have to calculate the perimeter of the playground.

Now, the perimeter of the rectangular playground is 2(75.23 + 105.55) = 2(180.78) = 361.56

So, he needs 361.56 meters of fencing.

Option B is correct.
