Question

a rectangular field is of dimensions 20m ×15m.two paths run parallel to the sides if the rectangle through the centre of the field the width of the longer path is 2m and that of the shorter path is 1m .find the area of path
iska answer 300cm square hona chahiye​

Answer 1

Answer

• The area of the paths are 20 m² and 30 m²

Explanation

Given

• Dimensions of a rectangle are 20 m & 15 m
• Two paths are laid here
• Breadth of the longer path is 2 m
• Breadth of the shorter path is 1 m

To Find

• The area of the path?

Solution

• Here one path will have a length 20 m and the other shorter path will have a length of 15 m
• This is because we are given that the two paths run parallel to the rectangle through the centre of the field

✭ Area of shorter path

→ Area(Rectangle) = Length × Breadth

• Length = 20 m
• Breadth = 1 m

→ Area(Shorter Path) = 20 × 1

→ Area(Shorter Path) = 20 m²

✭ Area of longer path

→ Area(Rectangle) = Length × Breadth

• Length = 15 m
• Breadth = 2 m

→ Area(Longer Path) = 15 × 2

→ Area(Longer Path) = 30 m²
