1 thought on “3) The length of fencing around a square garden is 36 m. What is the length <br /><br />of one side of the garden?”
Solution!!
It is given that the length of fencing done around the garden is 36 m. This means that the boundary of the garden is given which further means that the perimeter of the square garden is 36 m. We are asked to find out the length of one side of the garden. Since it is a square garden and the perimeter is given to us, we will use the perimeter formula of the square to find out the length of the side.
Perimeter=36m
Perimeter=4×Side
36 m = 4 × Side
36 m ÷ 4 = Side
Side = 9 m
Hence, the length of one side of the square garden is 9 m.
