<h2>Answer:</h2>

$6\frac{1}{2}$ <u>, "six and one over two ft".</u>

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Let's considerate the fact that the garden has a <u>square shape</u>.

<h3>1. Finding values of interest.</h3>

Amount of fence that the gardener already has: $4\frac{1}{2}$ ft.

Length of one side: $2\frac{3}{4}$ ft.

If one side measures $2\frac{3}{4}$ ft, and the square garden has 4 sides of equal length, because it's a square, then we must multiply the measure of one side by 4 to find the total length of fence needed:

$4*(2\frac{3}{4})=\\ \\4*(2+\frac{3}{4})=\\ \\(4*2)+(4*\frac{3}{4})=\\ \\8+(\frac{12}{4} )=\\ \\8+3=\\ \\11$

The gardener already has $4\frac{1}{2}$ , which equals $4 + \frac{1}{2}$ . Hence, the difference between the amount needed and the amount that the gardeneralready has will give us the remaining amount required. Let's do that:
