In this case, we'll have to carry out several steps to find the solution.

Step 01:

Fabric (square)

area = 9 / 36 ft²

length = ?

Step 02:

square area = s²


\begin{gathered} (9)/(36)=s^2 \\ \sqrt[]{(9)/(36)}\text{ = s} \\ (3)/(6)\text{ = s} \\ (1)/(2)\text{ = s} \end{gathered}

The answer is:

The length of each side is 1/2 ft
