The problem provided shows two areas: one covered with stones (which is $17 \, \text{m}^2$) and another for planting grass. To find the area for planting grass, the total area (green part and the white part surrounding it) would be needed.

However, the image doesn't specify the total area, only that $17 \, \text{m}^2$ is the area of the part with stones.

Could you provide the total area or any missing information (like dimensions) so that I can assist in solving it?
