Hi Mons,
its simple. Follow the following steps for such type of questions:
Steps
1. Find area of rectangular lawn
2. Find area of rectangular lawn including path around it
3. Subtract step1 answer from step2 answer
42 * 34 = 1428 sq metres
(42 + 2*2.5) ( 34+ 2*2.5) = 47*39 = 1833 sq metres
now subtracting we get area of path
1833 - 1428
= 405 sq metres
Hope it helped
