    12.5cm

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Each side of the pentagonal garden has a length of 2.5 cm.

    A pentagon has 5 sides.

    Since the garden has congruent sides, all its lengths are equal.

    Therefore:

    Distance Walked by Tanya

    = 5 X 2.5

    =12.5cm

    Tanya has walked 12.5cm in total.
