Question

rectangular park is 40 m long and 20 m wide. A path 4 m wide is constructed outside the park. Find the area of the path.​

Answer 1

Answer:

256 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ,

length of rectangular park = 40 m

and width = 20 m

area = length × breadth

= 40×20

= 800 m^2

now path is 4 m wide

so add 4 m both the side of park we get new

length = 44 m

breadth = 24 m

now area = length × breadth

= 44×24

= 1056 m^2

now area of path = 1056 - 800

= 256 m^2

Answer 2

Answer: area of path is  area of park with path - area of rectangular park                      

area of park =l x b= 45 x 30=1350 cm2

area of park with path is =45+2.5+2.5 x 30+2.5+2.5 = 1750cm2

area of path = 1750-1350=400 cm2
