Change 24', 18', and 9' to yards.
Then length x width = area in square feet for a wall. That times 4 walls = ??

As DrBob recommended, first change the feet to yards.
24' = 8 yds
18' = 6 yds
9' = 3 yds

Two walls measure 8 by 3. Each of the long walls is 24 sq. m. Two long walls are 48 sq. m.

Now do the same for the short walls.

If you post your answer, we'll be glad to check it.

Ooops -- each of the long walls measures 24 sq. yards (not meters).
