Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

Barrel (storage container) is enclosed in a small square fence.

Since, barrel is touching the surfaces from four sides of the cylindrical barrel.

Length of each side of the square fence = Diameter of the barrel

                                                                   = 2(radius of the barrel)

                                                                   = 2(1.5)

                                                                   = 3 feet

Perimeter of a square = 4(Side of a square)

                                     = 4(3)

                                     = 12 feet

Therefore, Option C will be the correct option.
