Answer:

  B.  185.25 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula ...

  P = 2(L +W) . . . . . where L and W represent the length and width

Filling in the given dimensions, we find the perimeter to be ...

  P = 2(54.125 +38.5) = 2(92.625 ft)

  P = 185.25 ft

The perimeter of the playground is 185.25 feet.
