Answer:
The total area of the road is 1328 sq.m
Step-by-step explanation:
Now if the total space is measured of the park along with the road it will be 88 by 68.
The outer side road's area, running parallel and
4 m wide is
{(88×66)-(80×60)} sq.m
= { 5808-4800 } sq.m
= 1008 sq.m
Now the area of the road in the middle of the park is
(4×80) sq.m
=320 sq.m
Therefore, the total area of the road is
(1008+320) sq.m
=1328 sq.m
