Answer:

no, he is short 72 roses

Explanation:

to find this out, we need to find out the area of the planned garden, we do this by multiplying width by length as shown

18 * 204 = 3,672

then we subtract the number of roses from the planed garden area

3,672 - 3,600 = 72

meaning that we are left with 72 spots missing or without a rose
