Question

An oblong piece of ground measures 19m 2.5 dm by 12m5dm.From center of each side of the ground, a path 2m wide goes across to the center of the opposite side.What is the area of the path?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of path horizontal=20*192.5=3850 dm^2

Area of path vertical=20*125=2500 dm^2

Since center path is covered twice so total area=(3850+2500)-(20*20)=5950 dm^2

total cost=1.32*59.5 m^2=78.54
