उत्तर
Let the length of the rectangular field = ‘L’ m
Breadth of the rectangular field = ‘B’ m
Area of the rectangular field = (L × B) m2
Also given length = 3 × Breadth
L = 3B
Width of the path (W) = 5 m
Lenth of the inner rectangle = L – 2W
= l – 2(5)
= 3B – 10 m
Breadth of the inner rectangle = B – 2W
= B – 2(5)
= B – 10 m
Area of the inner rectangle = (3B – 10)(B – 10)
= 3B2 – 10B – 30B + 100
Area of the path = Area of outer rectangle – Area of inner rectangle
= (L × B) – (3B2 – 10B – 30B + 100)
= 3B × B – (3B2 – 40B + 100)
= 3B2 – 3B2 + 40B – 100
Area of the path = 40B – 100
Given area of the path = 500 m2
40B – 100 = 500
40B = 500 + 100 = 600
B = `600/40`
B = 15 m
Length of the field = 45 m, Breadth of the field = 15 m
