your solution is below
according to the question, a 2.5m wide path runs around inside a rectangular field.
given the Length of the rectangular field = 30m
breadth of the rectangular field = 27m
area of the rectangular field = l × b
= 30 × 27
= 810m²
Length of the path parallel to the Length of the field = 30 - ( 2.5 + 2.5 )
= 30 - 5
= 25m
length of the path parallel to the breadth of the field = 27 - ( 2.5 + 2.5 )
= 27 - 5
= 22m
area of the field excluding the path = l × b
= 25 × 22
= 550m²
therefore area of the path = 810 - 550
= 260m²
