let's firstly convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions.

Well lets remember that a square has four sides that are all equal.
So if we know one side, we know them all!
And perimeter is all of the sides added up.
Well.. 4 sides that are all 9 meters long? here's the math!
9 + 9 + 9 + 9 = 36
Your coffee shop is 36 meters long
Good Luck! :)
You had 12 the next day and the day after that you had 18
