nancy wants to put up a fence around a rectangular garden. the garden measures 12ft by 18ft. how much fencing is required

Answer 1

To find out how much fencing is required, you need to calculate the perimeter of the rectangular garden.

The formula to calculate the perimeter of a rectangle is:

Perimeter = 2 * (length + width)

Given that the length of the garden is 12 ft and the width is 18 ft, the calculation becomes:

Perimeter = 2 * (12 + 18)
Perimeter = 2 * 30
Perimeter = 60 ft

Therefore, 60 feet of fencing is required to surround the rectangular garden.
