Answer:

34 m

Explanation:

So you know one side of the garden is 9 meters long and you know that the area is 72 square meters. To find out the length of the other side you would divide 72 by 9 which gives you 8. tithe you add 8 and 9 together twice or 16 and 18. The end result is 34 m.

Hope this helped!
