Question

A rectangular park is 60m long and 25m wide.A path 2.5m wide is constructed outside the park . Find the area of path​

Answer 1

Answer:

area of Park=l×b =45×30=1350cm

2

area of Park with path is

45+2.5+2.5×30+2.5+2.5=1750 cm

dare for area of path=area of Park with path-area of rectangular park

1750-1350=400cm

Answer 2

★ Given :-

smaller rectangle :

• Length of smaller rectangle is 60 m.
• Breadth of smaller rectangle is 25 m.

Larger rectangle :

• 2.5 m wide path runs all around outside smaller rectangle.

★ To Find :-

• Area of the path ?

★ Solution :-

● First we'll find the area of smaller rectangle :-

We have,

Length = 60 m, Breadth = 25 m.

◆ We know that,

Area of smaller rectangle = length × breadth

Now substitute the values :-

↦ Area of smaller rectangle = (60 × 25) m

↦ Area of smaller rectangle = 1500 m²

● And now we will find the area of the larger rectangle.

● First we'll find the length and breadth of the area of larger rectangle :-

∴ Length of larger rectangle = length of smaller rectangle + 2 + 2

↦ 60 + 2 + 2 = 64

∴ breadth of larger rectangle = Breadth of smaller rectangle + 2 + 2

↦ 25 + 2 + 2 = 29

Now, We have :

Length = 64 m, breadth = 29 m

◆ As we know that,

Area of large rectangle = length × breadth

Now substitute the values :-

↦ Area of larger rectangle = (64 × 29) m

↦ Area of larger rectangle = 1856 m²

Now, Area of path = Area of larger rectangle - Area of smaller rectangle.

↦ Area of path = 1856 - 1500

↦ Area of path = 356 m²

■ Hence, the Area of the path is 356 m².
