Question

A square field of side 50 metres has a
path inside it along its boundary. If
the width of the path is 2.5 metres,
find the area of the path.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope you understand this solution....

Answer 2

Answer:

Area of Path is 475m²

Step-by-step explanation:

we have given that one side measures.

As we know that area of square is:

Side Side

Now,

simply we will find the area of the square.

Area of square = Side × Side

= 50 × 50

= 2500m²

To find the area of the path we have to find the area of the inner square.

So for that what we have to do it is to find the side of the inner sqare

50 - 2.5 - 2.5 = 45m

Now, again that method-

Area of inner square = Side × Side

= 45 × 45

= 2025m²

So, area of inner square is 2025m²

The question is to find the area of path.

For that we have to remove the area of inner square from the whole square.

Outer square - inner square = Path

= 2500 - 2025

= 475m²
