Question

A path of width 2metre runs around a square garden of side 30 metre. Find the area of the path.​

Answer 1

Answer:

256 m square

Step-by-step explanation:

Side of square = 30 m

Area = Side x side = 30 m x 30 m = 900 m square

Length of side with the path = 30m + 2m + 2m = 34 m

Area = side x side = 34 m x 34 m= 1156 m square

Area of the path = ( 1156 - 900 ) m square

= 256 m square
