For this case the first thing that we must take into account is the following conversion of units:
 1 yard = 36 inches
 1 foot = 12 inches
 1 yard = 3 feet
 We have then:
 The perimeter is:
 P = 2 * (15 * (1/36)) + 2 * ((1 3/4) * (1/3))
 P = 2 yards
 The area is:
 A = (15 * (1/12)) * (1 3/4)
 A = 2.1875 feet ^ 2
 Answer:
 
the perimeter in yards is:
 
P = 2 yards
 
The area in square feet is:
 
A = 2.2 feet ^ 2
