Her new puppy will have 348 square ft. of play space.

Explanation:

Dimensions of the play space = 29 feet by 12 feet

Area = 29 x 12

= 348 square ft.

Her new puppy will have 348 square ft. of play space.

Fence required = 2(l + w)

= 2(29+12)

= 2(41)

= 81 feet

She require 81 feet of fence to surround the play space
