Step-by-step explanation:
The relationships between the radius of a circle and its circumference and area are ...
C = 2πr
A = πr²
The relationships between the side length of a square and its perimeter and area are ...
P = 4s
A = s²
So, the length of wire will be ...
w = C + P
w = 2πr + 4s
subject to the constraint that the sum of areas is 64 cm²:
πr² + s² = 64
___
Using the method of Lagrange multipliers to find the extremes of wire length, we want to set the partial derivatives of the Lagrangian (L) to zero.
L = 2πr + 4s + λ(πr² +s² -64)
∂L/∂r = 0 = 2π +2πλr . . . . . . [eq1]
∂L/∂s = 0 = 4 +2λs . . . . . . . . [eq2]
∂L/∂λ = 0 = πr² +s² -64 . . . . [eq3]
__
Solving for λ, we find ...
0 = 1 +λr . . . . divide [eq1 by 2π
λ = -1/r . . . . . . subtract 1, divide by r
Substituting into [eq2], we get ...
0 = 4 + 2(-1/r)s
s/r = 2 . . . . . . . . . .add 2s/r and divide by 2
This tells us the maximum wire length is that which makes the circle diameter equal to the side of the square.
Substituting the relation s=2r into the area constraint, we find ...
πr² +(2r)² = 64
r = √(64/(π+4)) = 8/√(π+4) ≈ 2.99359 . . . . cm
and the maximum wire length is ...
2πr +4(2r) = 2r(4+π) = 16√(4+π) ≈ 42.758 . . . cm
_____
The minimum wire length will be required when the entire area is enclosed by the circle. In that case, ...
πr² = 64
r = √(64/π)
C = 2πr = 2π√(64/π) = 16√π ≈ 28.359 . . . cm

Comment on the solution method
The method of Lagrange multipliers is not needed to solve this problem. The alternative is to write the length expression in terms of one of the figure dimensions, then differentiate with respect to that:
w = 2πr + 4√(64-πr²)
dw/dr = 2π -4πr/√(64-πr²) = 0
64 -πr² = 4r²
r = √(64/(π+4)) . . . . same as above
_____
Comment on the graph
The attached graph shows the relationship between perimeter and circumference for a constant area. The green curve shows the sum of perimeter and circumference, the wire length. The points marked are the ones at the minimum and maximum wire length.

Each piece of cloth is (1/12) of a yard long.
Step-by-step explanation:
Carlus cut 5/12 of a yard of cloth into 5 pieces of equal length.
To find the length of each piece of cloth, we need to find the quotient between the length of the piece of cloth, and the number of pieces in which we divide it.
This is:
length =
This means that the length of each piece of cloth is (1/12) of a yard long.
