Respuesta :

Answer: 12.1 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a rectangular fence so it represents a rectangle.

Fencing the garden will require going around it therefore you are looking for the perimeter.

Perimeter of a rectangle = (2 * Length) + ( 2 * Width)

= (2 * 315) + ( 2 * 290)

= 1,210 cm

Convert to meters:

A meter is 100 centimeters

= 1,210 / 100

= 12.1 meters
