Question

A RECTANGULAR FIELD MEASURING 40 M BY 35 M IS SURROUNDED BY 5 M WIDE PATH. FIND THE COST OF REPAIRING THE PATH AT ₹ 25 PER METER SQ
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Length of the rectangular field = 40 m

It's breadth =35 m

Area of the rectangular field =40 m × 35 m

= 1400 m2

New Length = 40m +10m =50m

New breadth =35m+10m =45m

New area=50m×45m=2250 m2

Area of the path=(2250-1400)m2

= 850 m2

Required cost to repair the path=850×25

=rs.2125
