    Question

    There is a rectangular field of dimensions 100 m and 80 m respectively. If a path of uniform width 10 m runs around and inside it. then the area of path will be:

    A.

    3400 m2^2​​

    B.

    3800 m2^2​​

    C.

    3200 m2^2​​

    D.

    3500 m2^2​​

    Correct option is C

    Given:
    Length of a rectangular field is 100 meter
    Breadth of rectangular field is 80 meter
    There is a 10 meter wide path inside the field
    Formula used :
    Area=Length × Width
    Solution:
    Length of outer rectangle field = 100
    Breadth of outer rectangle field = 80
    Area of outer rectangle = length × breadth
                                           => 100 × 80
                                           => 8000 m2^2​​
    Length of inner rectangle field = 100 - 20
                                                      => 80 m
    Breadth of inner rectangle field = 80 - 20
                                                      => 60 m
    Area of inner rectangle = 80 × 60
                                         => 4800 m2^2​​
    Area of path = outer area - inner area
                         => 8000 - 4800 => 3200 m2^2​​
