Question

A rectangular park is 35 m long and 20 m wide. A path 2 m wide is constructed outside the park
Find the area of the path.​

Answer 1

Answer :

Area of the path is 236 m².

Step-by-step explanation :

To Find,

• The area of the path

Solution,

Given that,

• Lenght of the park = 35m long
• Breadth = 20m wide
• 2m wide path is constructed outside the park

Therefore,

Area of the park without path

➯ Length × Breadth

➯ ( 35 × 20 ) m²

➯ 700 m²

Area of the park with path

➯ 35 + 2 + 2 × 20 + 2 + 2

➯ 35 + 4 × 20 + 4

➯ 39 × 24

➯ 936 m²

∴ Area of path = Area of park with path - Area of park without path

A . T . Q

Area of the path

➯ ( 936 - 700 ) m²

➯ 236 m²

∴ Hence, the area of path is 236m².
