Question

A rectangular garden 30 m long and 25 m wide has a path 2.5 m wide running all around
inside it. Find the area of the path.​

Answer 1

Answer:

131.25 m sq

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of Rectangle=l×b

30×25=750 m sq

As the oath is running inside the garden, we will subtract 5m (2.5+2.5) from length and breadth.

30-2.5=27.5

25-2.5=22.5

Area of remaining rectangle=l×b

27.5×22.5=618.75

Area of path=750-618.75=131.25 m sq
