Tessa Teatree after traveling across the globe decided to have a tea garden of
dimensions 11 ft x 6 ft in her backyard.

Create a garden plan on the given graph sheet. Also, mark the rows and
columns (exact position) where the saplings need to be placed.

Note:
While planting more than one sapling in the ground, we need to leave a distance of 3 ft
4
between the plants. This will give them room to breathe and become bushy.

Tessa also wanted to have a path to walk in the garden having the width of 1 1 ft and
2
of length 11 ft.
