Question

a garden 18 by 15 is surrounded by a path of uniform width 2.25 metre find the area of the path ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Areaofgarden=length×breadth

=18×15=270m

2

Now,

Lengthofpath=18+2.25+2.25=22.5m

Breadthofpath=15+2.25+2.25=19.5m

Areaofgardenwithpath=22.5×19.5=438.15m

2

Then

Areaofpath=Areaofgardenwithpath−areaofgarden

=438.75−270

=168.75m
