Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the square garden= $267$ ft^2$

Area of a Square of Side length s $=s^2$

Therefore:

$s^2=267$ ft^2\\$Take the square root of both sides\\s=\sqrt{267} \\$Side Lenght, s=16.34 ft (to the nearest hundredth place)$

<u>Perimeter</u>

Perimeter of a Square of Side length s=4s

Therefore, the perimeter of the garden =4*16.34=65.36 ft

Since 65 ft < 65.36 ft

Therefore, if you had 65 ft of fencing, it will not be enough to go around and cover the garden.
