Question

1 A lawn is 70 m long and 85 m broad. A path of 10 m wide is to be built around it. Find the area of the path​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of lawn = 70* 85 as length= 70m and breadth = 85m

as it is a rectangle

area will be 5950 m^2

After path is around rectangle

so new Length

70+(2*10)= 90 m

and new width= 85+(2*10)= 105m

area of rectangle with path = 90*105= 9450m^2= (length*breadth)

So area of path = 9450-5950= 3500 m ^2
