a family has a garden in their backyard in the shape of a rectangle they want to put a fence around the garden the long side measures 35 feet and the short side measures 12 feet how much Benson do they have to buy

Since the question is related to fencing, that is, the total length of the rectangular garden, so we need to check out the perimeter of the garden.

ANd perimeter of rectangle = 2 (length + width)

Here the sides are 35 feet and 25 feet

So perimeter = 2 (12+35) = 2*47=94 feet.

So they have to buy 94 feet Benson.
