Question

A rectangular park is 65m long and 30m wide .A path 2.5m wide is constructed all along inside park find the area of path​

Answer 1

Area of the park=length×breadth

=65×30

=1950m^2

Area of park with path=65+2.5+2.5×30+2.5+2.5

=65+5×30+5

=70×35

=2450m^2

Therefore,

Area of path=Area of park with path - Area of

rectangular park

=2450-1950

=500m^2

Hence, the area of the path is 500m^2
