Question 590902: a square lawn is surrounded by a path 4m wide around it.If the area of path is 320sq.m,find the area of lawn. Answer by ad_alta(240) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If 's' is a side of the lawn, 4*(4*s)+4*16=320, so s=16. The area of the lawn must be 256 m^2.
