Question

A rectangular park is surrounded by a path which is 2.5 m wide. If the length and breadth of the
rectangular park are 20 m and 15 m respectively, find the area of the path.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

first find area with path.

total length=25cm

total breath=20cm

area=20×25=500

area of only park =300

then area of only path =500minus300=200

Answer 2

Given :

Length of the Rectangular Park = 20 m

Breadth of the Rectangular Park = 15 m

Initial Breadth of the Path = 2.5 m

To Find :

Area of the Path

Formula Used :

Area of Rectangle = l*b

Procedure :

New Length of the Path = 20 + 2.5 + 2. 5

= 25 m

New Breadth of the Path = 15 + 2.5 + 2.5

= 20 m

Area of Path = Area of Path - Area of Rectangular Park

= ( l*b ) - ( l*b )

= 25*20 - 20*15

= 500 - 300

= 200 m²

Solution :

Area of Path = 200 m²

Unit :

m²
