Question

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

Answer 1

Find the area of the garden:

Area = length x Breadth

Area = 18 x 15 = 270 m²

Find the area of the garden and the path:

Length = 18 + 2.25 + 2.25 = 22.5 m

Breadth = 15 + 2.25 + 2.25 = 19.5 m

Area = Length x Breadth

Area = 22.5 x 19.5 = 438.75 m²

Find the area of the path:

Area of the path = 438.75 - 270 = 168.75 m²

Answer: The area is 168.75 m²
