Question

A square park is of side 100 m. A path 5 m wide is made all around the garden inside it. Find the area
of the path.
hool of length 20 mx 6 m in this lawn​

Answer 1

The total area of the park is (100*100) = 10,000m^2

So, if a path is there, then an inner square is formed.

So to know the side of the inner square we will subtract 5m twice from 100 m.

= 90m is side of inner square part and it’s area is 90*90 = 8100 m^2



Then to find the area of the path,

10,000m^2 - 8100m^2 = 1,900m^2 is the area of the path :)
