The length of the fencing will be 19.468 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Diameter of the garden, d = 6.2 ft

Radius, r = 6.2/2 = 3.1 ft

Length of the fencing = circumference of the garden

And,

circumference of the circular garden = 2πr

Substituting the value we get:

Circumference = 2 X 3.14 X 3.1 ft

= 19.468 ft

Therefore, the length of the fencing will be 19.468 ft
