Solution

The total length of the fence required is calculated by finding the perimeter of the rectangle. The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is 2*(length + width).

Step 1: Identify the length and width of the rectangle. In this case, the length is 15m and the width is 10m.

Step 2: Substitute the length and width into the formula. So, 2*(15m + 10m) = 2*25m = 50m.

So, the total length of the fence required is 50m.
