Answer:

the newer moat is 169 cm longer than the older one

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to find the difference in length of the two castles, we will first find the perimeters of the two castles then calculate the difference in the perimeters:

old castle:

dimension = 484cm by 386cm

perimeter = 484 + 386 = 870 cm

new castle:

dimension = 725cm by 314cm

perimeter = 725 + 314 = 1039 cm

difference =  1039 - 870 = 169 cm

The total length of the moats used is equals to the perimeter of the sand castles, therefore, the newer moat is 169 cm longer than the older one.

Answer:

Look I know I'm about 2 1/2 years late but the answer is not 169 or whatever the person above me said, it's 660 I answered this before.
