    The square will be equal to the diameter of the circle. The circumference of a circle is π times the diameter, and the perimeter of the square is four times times that diameter ...

    C=πd

    d=C/π

    p=4d so

    p=4C/π feet, since C≈99 ft and π≈3.14

    p≈4 (99) / (3.14)

    p≈126.1 ft (to nearest tenth of a foot)
