1 answer

To calculate the length of fencing needed to enclose the kennel, you can find the perimeter of the rectangle formed by the kennel dimensions. The formula for the perimeter \( P \) of a rectangle is:

\[ P = 2 \times (length + width) \]

In this case, the length is 22 feet and the width is 14 feet.

\[ P = 2 \times (22 + 14) = 2 \times 36 = 72 \text{ feet} \]

Therefore, the total length of fencing needed to enclose the kennel is 72 feet.
