Answer:
[tex]54[/tex] feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of the flower bed [tex]=15[/tex] feet.
Width of the flower bed is [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] the length.
So, width [tex]=\frac{4}{5}\times 15=4\times 3=12[/tex] feet.
To find the length of the fencing, we need to find the perimeter of the flower bed.
Perimeter of a rectangle [tex]=2(\textrm{length} + \textrm{width})[/tex]
So, perimeter of the flower bed [tex]=2(15+12)=2\times 27 = 54[/tex] feet.
Hence, [tex]54[/tex] feet of fencing is required for the flower bed.
