Question

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

Answer 1

30+5(width of road of both side) ×25+5=are
a of whole garden
35×30=1050m^2
area of garden (excluding roads)=30×25=750m^2
area of roads =1050-750=300 m^2
thus area of path =300m^2

Answer 2

Answer:  Area of the path is 250 m².

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of a rectangular garden = 30 m

Breadth of a rectangular garden = 25 m

Area of a rectangular garden is given by

$Area=30\times 25\\\\Area=750\ m^2$

Length of a inner part = 30-2.5-2.5=25 m

Breadth of a inner part = 25-2.5-2.5=20 m

Area of inner part is given by

$Area=25\times 20\\\\Area=500\ m^2$

So, Area of path = Area of rectangular garden - Area of inner part

is given by

$750-500\\\\=250\ m^2$

Hence, Area of the path is 250 m².
