Answer:

$3240

No, he is not having enough money for fencing the property

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale is 1 in. : 12 ft

Drawing of the property has length = 8 inches

∴ Length = 8 × 12 = 96 ft

And width = 7 inches

∴ width = 7 × 12 = 84 ft

Now length of fencing = perimeter of property = 2(l+b)

P = 2(96 + 84) = 360 ft

The cost of fencing = $9 per foot

Total cost of fencing = 9 × 360 = $3240

He is not having enough money for fencing the property
