    Given,

    Width (w) = 4 meters

    Length (L) = 7 meters

    So, area is 4*7 = 28 Meters sq

    Area of garden is to be doubled so area is 2 * 28 = 56 Sq meters

    And For that length and width should increase by same number so let it be x

    so,

    (4+x) * (7+x) = 56

    By solving that u get,

    X is approximately equals to 2.13,

    so we can say it as 2.
