you just need to determine the perimeter of the garden
which means you just add up all of the lengths of the sides
16+16+17+17 = 66
therefore you would need 66ft of fencing

Calculate the perimeter. 17 + 17 + 16 + 16 = 66 feet of fence

I believe the answer is 66 feet.
16 feet times 2 is 32 feet.
17 feet times 2 is 34 feet.
32 plus 34 is 66

P = 32 + 34 ft
P = 66 ft is length of fencing required.

seeking perimeter = length of all four sides = 2 x 16 + 2 x 17 = 66 ft.

(16 x 2 = 32), (17 x 2 =34), 32 + 34 = 66.

p = 2(l + w)
perimeter = 2 ( 16 + 17)
p = 2(33)
p = 66'

Perimiter = 2L + 2w
where L= length
w = width
2(16) + 2(17) = 66
