To find the perimeter of a shape, you add up the lengths of all its sides. In this case, the shape has two sides measuring 8 yards and 6 yards. Since 1 yard is equal to 36 inches, the lengths of the sides in inches would be 8 yards * 36 inches/yard = 288 inches and 6 yards * 36 inches/yard = 216 inches. Adding these two lengths together gives a perimeter of 288 inches + 216 inches = 504 inches.

Oh, what a lovely question! To find the perimeter, you simply add up all the sides. So for 8 yards and 6 yards, you would add 8 + 8 + 6 + 6 to get 28 yards. To convert this to inches, you can multiply by 36 since there are 36 inches in a yard. So the perimeter would be 28 yards * 36 inches/yard = 1008 inches. Happy painting!
The perimeter is the distance around something. You really haven't described
what it is that we're walking around, with the two lengths you've listed.
If its a rectangle then: 8+8+6+6 = 28 yards
The perimeter of a shape is equal to the sum of the lengths of its sides. In this case, the perimeter is 6 + 8 + 10 = 24 inches.
6+8+10=24 inches
By using Pythagoras it is: 6+8+6+8 = 28 inches
perimeter = 8+2+8+2 = 20 yards
