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 path

Answer 1

Area of garden =25*30=750m²

After a path is build with length of 30+5=35 and breadth =25+5=30

Area of new rectangle =30*35=1050

Area of path =1050-750=300m²

Answer 2

Area of rectangle= 30×25= 750m sq.

New length= 30+2.5+2.5=35m

New width= 25+2.5+2.5=30

New area= 35×30= 1050m sq.
Now,
area of path= 1050- 750= 300m sq.
