Vegetable Garden

Students at Shepherd Elementary School are planning a vegetable garden. They have 10 yards of fencing for the exterior of a square garden. The interior of the garden will then be divided equally into squares so that each student can choose one type of vegetable for their square. There are 25 students in the class.

  1. Find the dimensions and area of each student’s square garden space.

  2. What are the dimensions and area of the whole vegetable garden?
