Length of swimming pool = 20m
Breadth of Swimming pool = 12m
Therefore, Area of Swimming Pool = l x b 
                                                   = 20m x 12m = 240 m sq.

Length of Inner Rec. = 20 - 2 = 18 m
Breadth of Inner rec.=  12 - 2 = 10m
Therefore, Area = l x b
                       = 18 x 10 = 180 m sq.

A.T.Q.===========>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Surface area of Inner Path = Area of swimmng pool - Area of Inner Rec.
                                       = 240 m sq. - 180 m sq.
                                       = 60 m sq. 

Answer is = 60 m sq.

Initial Area of pool =l.b=12*20=240m² When concrete wall is build around.....l=20+2=22m and b=12+2=14m New area of pool =l.b=22*14=308m² So atlast,area remained for walking=New area-Initial area=308-240=68m²

PinkyTune: No, its wrong, to see the ans. go to https://raffles.guru/olympiad/math-olympiad/math-olympiad-questions-001.aspx. I know the ans., just want an explanation from you guys.
PinkyTune: If still cant figure out the ques. Aayushi99 then I am telling it.It is 144 cm2
Aayushi99: May be the answer on the website is wrong!!!
Aayushi99: Last possibility is 68m²
Aayushi99: Okay..i got my mistake.....
Aayushi99: Initial Area of pool =l.b=12*20=240m² When concrete wall is build around.....l=20+“4"=24m and b=12+“4"=16m New area of pool =l.b=24*16=384m² So atlast,area remained for walking=New area-Initial area=384-240=144m²...
