Answer:

The answer to your question is: 8 bags of gravel

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

width = 11 ft

path = 2 ft

bag of gravel = 9 ft²

Area of a square garden with path= 11 x 11 = 121 ft²

Area of the square garden = 7 x 7 = 49 ft².

Area of the path = 121 - 49 = 72 ft²

# of bags = 72 / 9 = 8 bags
