Question

You must have observed that quite often, in gardens or parks, some space is left all around in the form of path or in between as cross paths. A framed picture has some space left all around it.We need to find the areas of such pathways or borders when we want to find the cost of making them.
A rectangular park is 45 m long and 30 m wide.A path 2.5 m wide is constructed
3 3outside the park. Find the area of the path.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

1350sq.units

Step-by-step explanation:

45m long

30m wide

Area of the rectangle formula is length×breadth

so, 45×30=1350

Answer 2

Answer:

Area of park =l×b=45×30=1350 cm

2

Area of park with path is =45+2.5+2.5×30+2.5+2.5=1750 cm

2

Therefore,

Area of path = Area of park with path − Area of rectangular park

=1750−1350=400 cm

2

Hence, this is the answer.
