Question

a rectangular park is 42 m long and 36 m wide. two cross paths parallel to the length and other parallel to the breadth are constructed in the moddle of the park the path parallel to length is 3 m wide and that parallel to the breadth is 2.5 m wide find the total area of the path

​

Answer 1

Answer:

Area of park =l×b=45×30=1350 cm

2

Area of park with path is =45+2.5+2.5×30+2.5+2.5=1750 cm

2

Therefore,

Area of path = Area of park with path − Area of rectangular park

=1750−1350=400 cm

2

Hence, this is the answer.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

So, 42×3+36×2.5-2.5×3

= 126+90-7.5

=216-7.5

=208.5

So, the answer is 208.5

Hope answers the question very well..
