A rectangle playing ground is 25 m long and 15 m broad A path of 3 metres width is all around inside it along the border. Find the area of path
Answers
Answer:
Given :
Length of rectangle = 25 m
Breadth of rectangle = 15 m
Length of path = 3 m
To find :
Area of the path
According to the question,
➞ Area of rectangle = l × b
Where,
l = Length
b = Breadth
➞ Area of rectangle = 25 m × 15 m
➞ Area of rectangle = 375 m²
So,the area of rectangle is 375 m².
Now,
Including path
So,
➞ Length = 25 m + 3 m + 3 m = 31 m
➞ Breadth = 15 + 3 m + 3 m = 21 m
★ Area of rectangle including path,
➞ Area of rectangle = l × b
➞ Area of rectangle = 31 m × 21 m
➞ Area of rectangle = 651 m²
So, the area of rectangle including path is 651 m².
Now,
➞ Area of path = Area of rectangle including path - Area of rectangle
➞ Area of path = 651 m² - 375 m²
➞ Area of path = 276 m²
So,the area of path is 276 m².
