Answered by maham237 @
Hassan built a fence around a square yard.
It took 500 feet of lumber to build the fence.
Therefore, measurement of each side of the square yard = 500 / 4 = 125 feet
The information that fence is 5 feet tall is redundant for calculating the area of the square yard.
Area of yard inside the fence is given by Side * Side = 125 * 125 = 15,625 sq feet
Hope this helps..!!
Thank you :)
