Question

A circular path runs around a circular plot. If the circumference of the plot and the path are 44m and 88m,respectively, find the width of the path

Answer 1

7 meters

Explanation:

circumference of path=88m

⇒2πr=88

⇒2.

22

​

.r=88

⇒r=14m

circumference of plot=44m

⇒2πr

′

=44

⇒2.

=44

⇒r

=7m

therefore width of path=r−r

=14−7

=7m
