Answer:
Rectangle:
Length-108m
Breadth-54m
Perimeter- 2×(length+breadth)
= 2(108+54) m
=2×162m
=324m
Square:
Side-78m
perimeter-4×side
=4×78m
=312m
since the perimeter of rectangle is greater than the perimeter of square.
therefore, square field will require more fencing.
also, area of rectangle= length×breadth
=108×54m²
=5832m²
area of square= side ×side
= 78²
=6084m²
