Question

A square park is of side 100 m. A path 5 m wide is made all around the garden inside it. Find the area
of the path

Answer 1

Answer:

area's formula is length * breadth so 100*5

answer is 500m/s

Answer 2

Answer:

I am assuming that the path is just around the square park. The area of the path is 1,900m².

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We first need to layout the path around the square park which is 5m in width.
2. Then, we have to divide the path into 4 areas.
3. Looking at the top view, let's assume that the left most part path is the Area 1 having a dimension of 100m x 5m.
4. The second area being the one at the top having a dimension of 95m x 5m.
5. The third area is the one on the left having a dimension of 95m x 5m.
6. And the last area is the one at the bottom having a dimension of 90m x 5m.

COMPUTATION:

$area \: 1 = 5(100) = 500 \\area \: 2 = 5(95) = 475 \\ area \: 3 = 5(95) = 475 \\ area \: 4 = 5(90) = 450 \\ \\ total \: area = 500 + 475 + 475 + 450 \\ = 1900 {m}^{2}$
