Question

two path each of width 5m are running perpendicular to each other in the middle of rectangular park 120m by 60m find the area of path and also the cost of gravelling the path at the rate of 5 per metere square​

Answer 1

Answer:

the area of the path is 875^2

cost=4375$

Step-by-step explanation:

area of the park=l*b

a=l*b

a=120*60

=7200m^2

first path=5*120

             =600m^2

second path=5*60

                    =300m^2

the middle portion where the two paths meet=5*5

                                                                           =25m^2

600+300=900

900-25=875

the area of the path is 875^2

cost=875*5

      =4375$
