Answer:

$24,000

Explanation:

So, first, we must find the length so

3500/50 = 70

Now, we need to find the perimeter. Some might think we do 3500 x 100

But that means we’re filling the whole land with just fence. The only place you would fence is the perimeter. To find the perimeter you add up all the sides so

70 + 70 + 50 + 50 = 240

Then to find the costs

240 x 100 = $24,000
