Answer:

We will need 50 feet of chain link fence to build a fence around the garden.

Explanation:

Measurements of the garden = 10 * 15 feet

How many feet of chain link fence will you need to build a fence around the garden?

For answering the question, let's calculate the perimeter of the garden, this way:

Perimeter = 2 Width + 2 Length

Replacing with the values we have:

Perimeter = 2 * 10 + 2 * 15

Perimeter = 20 + 30

Perimeter = 50 feet
