a play ground of a school is rectangular in shape with length 60m and breath 45m. a cemented pathway running all around it of . width 1 m is built on the outside. find the area of pathway
Answers
new length is 60 +2=62 m
new breath is 45+2=47m
new area is 62 × 47 =2914m^2
old breath =45 m
old length =60m
old area =45 × 60=2700 m ^2
area of path=new area -old area
=2914-2700
=214m^2
PLEASE MARK IT AS BRAINLIST
The area of the Path is 214 sq.m
Given :
The Length of the Rectangle = 60 m
Breadth of the Rectangle = 45 m
Width of the path = 1 m
To find :
The area of the path
Solution :
Area of the path = Area of bigger Rectangle - Area of smaller Rectangle.
First, find the area of the Rectangular play ground. (Smaller Rectangle)
Area of Rectangle =
Area of the Smaller Rectangle = 2700 sq.m
Area of the bigger Rectangle =
Length = 60 + 1 × 2 = 62
Breadth = 45 + 1 × 2 = 47
Area of the Bigger Rectangle = 3008 sq.m
Area of the Path =
Area of Bigger Rectangle = 3008 sq.m
Area of the Smaller Rectangle = 2700 sq.m
The area of the Path is 214 sq.m
