Answer:

Length = 34 feet

Breadth = 30 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter= 128 ft

Let the breadth be = $x$

Let the length be = $x+4$

∴by the problem ,

2(length+breadth)= perimeter

$2(x+4+x)=128\\2(2x+4)=128\\4x+8=128\\4x=128-8\\4x=120\\x=120/4\\x=30$

Therefore, length of the garden = 30+4= 34 feet

breadth of the garden = 30 feet
