Question

A 3m wide path Run outside and around a rectangular Park of length 125 and breadth 65 M find the area of the path

Answer 1

Area of park=125*65=8125m²

After a path is build, a new rectangle is formed with length 125+6=131 and breadth 65+6=71

Area of new rectangle=71*131=9301

Area of path =9301-8125=1176m²

Answer 2

Answer:

$1176 m^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of Rectangular Park = 125 m

Breadth of Rectangular park = 65 m

Area of rectangular path = $Length \times Breadth$

                                         = $125 \times 65$

                                         = $8125m^2$

We are given that width of path is 3 m

So, new length (including width of path) = 125+3+3=131 m

New Breadth of Rectangular Park = 65+3+3 = 71 m

Area of rectangular park including the path = $Length \times Breadth$

                                                                          = $131\times 71$

                                                                          = $9301m^2$

So, the area of the path = Area of rectangular park with path - Area of rectangular park without path

                                       = $9301-8125$

                                       = $1176 m^2$

Hence the area of Path is  $1176 m^2$
