    B 365 m² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 304 m² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 475 m² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Outer rectangle area = 50 × 30 = 1,500 m² Inner rectangle (after removing 2 m from each side): Length = 50 − 4 = 46 m Width = 30 − 4 = 26 m Inner area = 46 × 26 = 1,196 m² Area of path = 1,500 − 1,196 = 304 m²
