Explanation:

Step1: Convert space width to inches

Since 1 foot = 12 inches, calculate total inches:
$3 \times 12 + 9 = 45$ inches

Step2: Convert space length to inches

Use 1 foot = 12 inches for conversion:
$4 \times 12 = 48$ inches

Step3: Compare dimensions

Trampoline is 46 inches × 46 inches.
Space width (45 in) < trampoline width (46 in)

Answer:

No, he does not have enough space. The width of his rectangular space is 45 inches, which is less than the 46-inch width of the trampoline, so the trampoline will not fit in the available space.
