Answer 2

$\bold{\large{\underline{\underline{\sf{StEp\:by\:stEp\:explanation:}}}}}$

$\huge\tt\green{Given :-}$

Length = 60m.

Breadth = 40m

width = 2 m

So, by using formula of area of rectangle

Area of rectangle = length × breadth

Area of path = Area of outer rectangle - Area of inner rectangle

Length of inner rectangle = Actual length - 2(width of path)

Breadth of inner rectangle = Actual Breadth - 2(width of path)

$\huge\tt\green{sOluTion :-}$

Length of inner rectangle = 60 - 2(2) = 56m

Breadth of inner rectangle = 40-2(2) = 36m

hence , Area of path = (60×40) - (56×36) = 2400 - 2016 = 384m²

Now, cost of gravelling is = Rs. 11 / m²

hence , Total cost = 384×11 = Rs.4224 (Ans)
