5 Fences, 5 Angles x + 2x + 3x + 4x + 5x = 360º

Go!

anonymous · Answer

You mean 
 x + 2x + 3x + 4x + 5x = 540º
Right?

how did you got 540?

anonymous · Answer

Sum of Interior angles of a pentagon.

tkhunny · Answer

I don't think so.  These appear to be vertex angles around the point of intersection, not interior angles around the perimeter of a pentagon.

@shoxa27  Is there a drawing?

But why, in the name of elephants, would you put fences like|dw:1361849193444:dw|

Math is silly.

tkhunny · Answer

I have no objection to your elephants.  That's just what it says to me.  Maybe you want to separate sheep, goats, horses, elephants, and pigs..

Well, words mean things.  If the problem statement means something else, it should say so.
