Question

A street of width 10 metres surrounds from outside a rectangular garden whose measurement is 200 m × 180 m. The area of the path (in square metres) is

• A. 8000
• B. 7000
• C. 7500
• D. 8200

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 8000

Area of garden without street = 200 × 180 = 36000 sq.metre

Area of garden with street = 220 × 200 = 44000 sq.metre

Area of the path = 44000 – 36000 = 8000 sq.metre
