Question

A rectangular lawn 100 m long and 60 m wide has a garden path 4 m wide running all around it. Find the area of the path.​

Answer 1

length lawn+garden path= 100+2*4 = 108m

width of lawn + garden path= 60+2*4 = 68m

Total area = 108*68=7344m²

Lawn area: 100*60=6000m²

garden path area: 7344-6000=1344m²
