      C 330 m² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 447 m² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Inner rectangle: 45 m × 35 m Area(inner) = 45 × 35 = 1575 m² Outer rectangle dimensions: Length = 45 + 2×5 = 55 m Width = 35 + 2×5 = 45 m Area(outer) = 55 × 45 = 2475 m² Area of path = Area(outer) − Area(inner) = 2475 − 1575 = 900 m²
