As the given figure can be considered as two rectangles,
Consider the first rectangle,
The length is, 9-2 = 7 cm,
The width is, 10-6 = 4 cm.
Therefore, the perimeter is,
[tex]P=2(l+w)=2(7+4)=22\text{ cm}[/tex]For the second rectangle,
[tex]P=2(l+w)=2(10+2)=24\text{ cm}[/tex]Therefore, the total perimeter is,
22 cm + 24 cm = 46 cm.
