Remark
The thing you must not do is write 7.182 as your answer. That is the exact answer found using a calculator.
What to do.
What you should do is multiply two rounded numbers together.
7.6 rounded is 8 roughly
0.945 is almost 1.
Your answer is 8*1 = 8 roughly. This skill is very handy when you are writing a test and you want to see if you've done the question correctly. It is easy to misplace a decimal or put in incorrect digits and this is a quick check on things like that.
12 x 15 = 180
180 x 2 = 360

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
32 feet of fence
Step-by-step explanation:
The garden is a square, so the length and width are equal.
A = L x W
W = L
A = W²
A = 64
W² = 64
W = √64 = ±8 -- (-8) would be extraneous
W = 8 ft
L = 8ft
Since she is putting the fence around the garden, she needs to find the perimeter.
P = 2L + 2W
P = 2(8) + 2(8)
P = 16 + 16
P = 32 ft
32 feet of fence
