area of a rectangular plot =length X breadth
=125 X 75=9375....(i)
area of the rectangular plot without the path= length X breadth =(125-2.5-2.5) X (75-2.5-2.5)=
120 X 70=8400.........(ii)
Area of the path =area of rectangular plot - area of rectangular plot without the path
=9375-8400=975
Hence the area of the path is 975 sq. cm
