Hello!

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is:

A = 2l * 2w

Since we already have the width, we must multiply that by two (because there are two pairs of equal sides in a rectangle) and subtract that from the perimeter to find the length. 

4 + 4 = 8

26 - 8 = 18

18/2 = 9

So, the length of Lisa's flower garden is 9 ft.
