A gardener has an area of 225 square feet. How much fencing will the gardener need to buy in order to place it around the garden?
+128596 I'm assuming that the garden is in the shape of a square [ if not, there might be infinite possibilities]
So the area of a square is just the side squared and we have
side2 = 225 take the square root of both sides
side = sqrt (225) = 15 ft
So each side is 15ft and there are 4 of them....so we need 15 x 4 = 60 ft of fencing
If his garden is a perfect square(with all sides equal), then we just take the sq root of the total area of 225 sq.feet=15 feet, so the total length of fence needed would be 15 x 4=60 feet
