<PRE><B>Question 1080888</B>
A rectangular swimming pool 15 meters by 6 meters will be surrounded by a concrete path 2 meters wide. Find:

1. Area of the path
----
The dimensions outside the part are 17*10 meters
The area inside the path = 17*10 = 170 sq meters
Area of the path = 170 - 15*6 = 80 sq meters.
-----------
2. The cost of concreting to a depth of 10cm if the concrete costs $165 per cubic meter
If you mean the path:
Vol = area*height = 80*0.1 = 8 cubic meters.
$165*8 = $1320
