MCQ
A rectangular ground 8$0m \times 50m$ has a path $1m$ wide outside around it. The area of the path is:
- ✓$264m^2$
- B$284m^2$
- C$400m^2$
- D$464m^2.$
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
$264m^2$
Length of the ground including the path $= 80 + 2 = 82m$
Breadth of the ground including the path $= 50 + 2 = 52m$
Total area $($including the path$) =$ Length $\times$ Breadth $=82 \times 52=4264 m^2$
Area of the field $=80 \times 50=4000 m^2$
Area of the path $=4264-4000=264 m^2$.
Breadth of the ground including the path $= 50 + 2 = 52m$
