Question

A path of uniform width 8m runs around the outside of a rectangular field 30m by 15m. Find the area of the path? fast

Answer 1

Answer:

976 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the field= lb

= 30×15 m²

= 450 m²

Length of the field with the path= 30+8+8 m

= 46 m

Breadth of the field with the path= 15+8+8 m

= 31 m

Area of the field with the path= lb

= 46×31 m²

= 1426 m²

Area of the path= 1426-450 m²

= 976 m²

hope it helps!
