Question

Sandra is putting up a fence around her garden, which is in the shape of a square. Each foot of fencing costs $9. If each side of the fence will be 8 feet long, how many feet of fencing will Sandra need? Just trying to get a second opinion on this one.

Answer 1

Sandra will need 32 feet of fencing. This is because the shape of the garden is a square. The length is 8 ft, so the perimeter of the garden is 32.
