1) To find the approximate length of each side of the garden, we need to find the square root of the area.

Taking the square root of 205, we have √205 ≈ 14.32.

Therefore, the approximate length of each side of the garden is 14.32 feet.

2) To find the approximate perimeter of the garden, we multiply the length of one side by 4, since all sides of a square are equal.

So, the approximate perimeter of the garden is 14.32 * 4 = 57.28 feet.

Therefore, you would need approximately 57.28 feet of fencing to go around the garden.
