Question

A rectangular grassy plot is 112 m long and 78 and broad it has a 2.5 m wide path outside all around it. Find the area of the path (please solve the step)

Answer 1

Area of rectangle plot with path

A=LXB

A=117X83

A=9711 ----(1)

Area of rectangle plot without path

A=112X78

A=8736-----(2)

Now for calculating area of path we have to subtract area of rectangle plot with path and area of rectangle plot without path

So,(1) - (2)

9711 -8736

975

So area of path is 975m squ.
