Answer: The perimeter for the garden will be 72ft, so Mr. Hodges needs 72 feets of fence.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a rectangle, where the sides are of 6 feet one and 30 feet the other,
Now, the perimeter of a rectangle is equal to two times each side, so if we have a shorter and a longer side we have
Perimeter = 2*shorter + 2*longer
here shorter = 6ft and longer = 30ft.
So we have:
P = 2*6ft + 2*30ft = 12ft + 60ft = 72ft
