Hi!
Answer:
(i) 2600 m²
(ii) ₹39,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data,
Width of path = 5 m
Breadth of rectangle = 60 m
Length of rectangle = 200 m
So,
Perimeter of the rectangle = Total length of the path
= 2[l + b]
= 2[200 + 60]
= 2 × 260
= 520 m
(i) Area of path = length × width
= 520 × 5
= 2600 m²
(ii) Cost of construction = Area × cost per m²
= 2600 × 15
= ₹39,000
I hope it helps :D
