​

Answer 1

Question:

Find the Area of path 2m wide made around a swimming pool of length 30m and breadth 20m.

Step-by-Step Solution:

Width of the path = 2m

Length of the pool = 30m

Breadth of the pool = 20m

Area of the path = Total Area - Area of the pool

Area of the pool,

⇒ l × b

⇒ 30 × 20

⇒ ∴ 600m²

__________

Total Area

Add 4m to length and breadth

length = 30 + 4 = 34m

breadth = 20 + 4 = 24m

⇒ l × b

⇒ 34 × 24

⇒ ∴ 816m²

__________

Area of the Path = Total Area - Area of the pool

⇒ 816 - 600

Answer:

⇒ ∴ 216m²
