Answer:

110 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Length of the rectangular garden = 9 1/4 feet = 37/4 feet

Width of the rectangular garden = 4 1/2 feet = 9/4 feet

We need to find the total length of fencing Mark needs to surround all 4 gardens.

The length for 1 garden = perimeter of the garden

The length for 4 garden = 4×perimeter of the garden

= 4×2(l+b)

$=8(l+b)\\\\=8(\dfrac{37}{4}+\dfrac{9}{2})\\\\=8\times 13.75\\\\=110\ \text{feet}$

Hence, 110 feet is the total length of the fencing Mark needs to surround all 4 gardens.
