    The answer to your question is: 8 bags of gravel

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Data

    width = 11 ft

    path = 2 ft

    bag of gravel = 9 ft²

    Area of a square garden with path = 11 x 11 = 121 ft²

    Area of the square garden = 7 x 7 = 49 ft².

    Area of the path = 121 - 49 = 72 ft²

    # of bags = 72 / 9 = 8 bags
