Answer:

63 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total diameter of the circular garden is given by 5ft+ 10 ft + 5 ft= 20 feet

As the circumference of the circle = 2πr where r = radius obtained by dividing the diameter by 2. Here the diameter = 20 feet and r= d/2 = 20/2 = 10 feet

Putting the values in the circumference formula

Then C= 2(22/7) (10)= 62.85 feet

Rounding gives almost 63 feet .
