The perimeter of the garden is 14 yard.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the figure:

Each unit on the grid represents yard.

From the figure we can find that:

The length of FA is 3.5 yard

The length of EF is 3.5 yard

The length of DX is 2 yard

The length of CD is 2 yard

The length of CB is 1.5 yard

The length of AB is 1.5 yard

To find the perimeter of the garden we need to add all the length as shown:

Perimeter = FA + EF + DX + CD + CB + AB

Perimeter = 3.5 + 3.5 + 2 + 2 + 1.5 +1.5

Perimeter = 14 yards

Hence, the perimeter of the garden is 14 yard.
