We have the next given information:

The ratio for the side length of square A to the side length of Square B is 4:9

The perimeter of Square A is equal to 48 yards.

A square has all four equal side lengths.

The perimeter is given by the sum of all the side lengths.Therefore, P = 4L.

The perimeter of square A = 48, then each length will be 48/4 =12.

Now, 12 is 4:9 of one side for square B.

Hence, one side of the square B:

12/4 =3

3*9 = 27

The side length of square B=27.

Replace on the perimeter formula P=4L, Where L represents the length.

Then

The perimeter of square B = 4(27)

=108

The perimeter of square B is 108 yards.
