I am just editing my essay for my one class and this is a question I always get stumped on which is the proper way.

Would a comma or period go inside the quotation marks, or outside?

Example,

"The dog ran extremely fast."
"The dog ran extremely fast".

and

I strongly believe with the representation of "the garden",

I stronly believe with the representation of "the garden,"

please help!
thanks

In the US, before (or inside) the closing quotation mark.

And please remember -- it's spelled grammar.
