The fence must have two sides of length 45.45 ft and two sides of length 14.63

To cover each of 45.45 ft long side, he will need 45.45 /  2 = 22.7 slats which approximates to 23. So, they are 2 * 23 = 46 slats.

To cover each of 14.63 ft sides, he will need 14.63 / 2 = 7.3 which approximates to 8 (to not leave any spaces between each slat). So, they are 2 * 8 = 16 slats.

That makes 46 + 16 = 62 slats.

Answer: around 62 slats.
