To find the amount of monkey grass needed to go around a circular flower bed with area 36π, we need to first find the circumference of the circle.

The formula for the circumference of a circle is C = 2πr, where r is the radius of the circle.

Since we know that the area is 36π, we can find the radius by using the formula for the area of a circle: A = πr^2.

36π = πr^2
r^2 = 36
r = 6

So, the radius of the circle is 6.

Now we can find the circumference by plugging in the radius into the formula:

C = 2π(6)
C = 12π

Therefore, you would need 12π feet of monkey grass to go around the circular flower bed.

Answer: B 12π feet
