Hershey wants to update his kennel with some new carpet.
His kennel is a rectangle and measures 10 feet in length and 5 feet in width.
Hershey wanted to find the area of his kennel so he added up his sides and came up with 30 feet as his area.
Is Hershey correct? Why or why not? Please explain your answer.

Hershy is not right because he just found the perimitor he forgot about the inside. instead of counting the perimitor you have to multiply 10x5 so it would be 50 feet.
Hershey is wrong because 10x5= 50. I will even count 10 20 30 40 50. So that is how i got 50
Hershy is correct beacause
10+10+5+5=30
10+10=20
5+5=10
no because if 10x5=50 he would need a bigger cennel
yes he is correct 10+10+5+5=30 sothe area is 30
Hershey is not right because he added the perimader you need to add the area so add i like this 10+10+10+10+10= and solve the anser so add 10+10+10+10+10=50.
its false becase 5 10 times is 50
No Hershy is not right because 10+10+10+10+10=50.And 5+5+5+5+5 and it keeps going for 30 times.
No Hershy is not right becuse when you find the area you x so the anser is 50.
No, Because 5 times 10 or 10 times 5 is 50.
The inside of Hershy's kennel is five times ten = fifty so Hershy is incorrcet.
I think hershey is wrong because he added the periretem I think it is 50 because 10x5=50 because 5 10 15 20 25 30 25 40 45 50 or 10 20 30 40 50. So i think the area is 50
Hershey found the perireter in the outside and it 30.The area to this is 50 if their in 10 up and down and 5 across then that like 10x5=50.like 10 20 30 40 50. And 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50.
No because if you count by 5s or 10s you get 50 and not 30.So it would be 50.
No becouse its area and 5 by 10 or 5x10=50 so NO!!n
no because theres 5 roes of 10 so i know that 5 roes of 10 is 50 i know that because we where talking about the stuff.
No because he couned the outside of the cannle I got 50 this is how I got 50 I did 5x10= 50.
no becouse he did the perimiter it is like this HERSHY! 5x10=50!
No.He needs it to be 50 square feet for it to be the right size.
Hershey is wrong because the answer is 50 because he added the perimeter then that would be 30.
