524 cm^2
Explanation:-
Area of the rectangular plot = 75 x 60 = 4500 cm^2
Length of the smaller rectangle = 75 -(2+2) cm = 71 cm
Breadth of the smaller rectangle = 60 -(2+2) cm = 56 cm
Area of the smaller reactangle = 3976 cm^2
Therefore, area of the path = Area of the rectangular plot - Area of the smaller rectangle
Therefore, area of the path = 4500 cm^2 - 3976 cm^2
= 524 cm^2
