Joey is creating a rectangular garden. The garden is 9 feet long and 7 feet wide. Joey calculated he needs feet of fencing to close in the garden and square feet of soil to cover the garden.

Amount of fencing: 32 feet

Amount of soil: 63 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Fencing: In a rectangle, the opposite side is the same length. So we do:

9+7+9+7 = 32 feet

Soil: The soil is the area. Area is equal to length times width. Length is 9 and width is 7, so we do:

9 x 7 = 63 feet squared
