Question

39. A garden is 60m long and 45m broad. A 2.5m wide path is to be built outside and
around it. Find the area of the path. Also, find the area of the garden in hectares.​

Answer 1

Answer:

0 . 675 HECTARES

Step-by-step explanation:

breadth of rectangular garden=45m

Outer length of rectangular garden with path=60+2.5+2.5=65m

Outer breadth of rectangular garden with path =45+2.5+2.5=50m

Outer area of rectangular garden with path=length×breadth=65×50

=3,250m ^2

Inner area of garden without path=length×breadth=60×45 =2,700m ^2

Now, Area of path=Area of garden with path−Area of garden without path

=3,250−2,700

= 550m^2

Since, 1m ^2 = 0.0001 hectares

Therefore, 6,750m ^2

=0.675 hectares.
