      Question

      A rectangular field measures 60 m by 40 m. A path of

      uniform width 2 m is constructed inside the field along all four sides. What is the area of the path?
      A 425 m² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 278 m² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 384 m² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 445 m² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Outer rectangle (field): 60 × 40 = 2400 m² Inner rectangle (after excluding 2 m path from each side): Length = 60 − 2 − 2 = 56 m Breadth = 40 − 2 − 2 = 36 m Inner area = 56 × 36 = 2016 m² Area of path = 2400 − 2016 = 384 m²
