    If the square perimeter is 8y, then the square side would be:

    square perimeter = 4*side

    8y = 4*side

    side=2y

    The square garden side is 3m shorter than the length of the rectangle garden. The rectangle garden length will be:

    rectangle length = square sides + 3

    rectangle length = 2y+3

    rectangle perimeter = 2 (rectangle length + rectangle side)

    rectangle perimeter = 2 (2y+3 + 2y+1)

    rectangle perimeter = 2 (4y+4)

    rectangle perimeter = 8y + 8
