First, evaluate the perimeter of the paddock.

Perimeter = 2L + 2W

So the perimeter of the paddock is equal to (2)(45) + (2)(21) = 132.

Next, we know that a post will be placed on the fencing every three meters, so we can simply divide the perimeter by 3 in order to get the number of posts.

132/3 = 44 and the answer is A.
