Suzanne wants to put a fence around her square garden. If the garden covers an area of 100ft^2, how many feet of fencing does she need.
To find the length of the fence needed to surround the garden, you need to find the perimeter of the square garden.
If the area of the square garden is 100ft^2, then the length of each side of the square is the square root of 100, which is 10ft.
Since the garden is a square, all sides are equal, and the perimeter is the sum of all sides.
So, the perimeter of the garden is 4 x 10ft = 40ft.
Therefore, Suzanne will need 40ft of fencing to put around her garden.
