Solution

Radius of the ground R = 103 m

Width of a track W = 3 m

Width of 4 tracks = 4 × 3 = 12 m

Radius of the ground without track

r = (103 – 12) m

r = 91 m

Area of 4 tracks = Area of the ground – Area of the ground without track

= πR2 – πr2 sq.units

= π(R2 – r2) sq.units

= `22/7 [103^2 - 91^2]`

= `22/7 [103 + 91] [103- 91]  "m"^2`

= `22/7 xx 194 xx 12`

= `51216/7`

= 7316.57 m

∴ Area of 4 tracks = 7316.57 m2

Cost of constructing 7316.57 m2 = ₹ 50

∴ Cost of constructing 7316.57 m2 = ₹ 50 × 7316.57

= ₹ 3,65,828,57

Cost of constructing the track ₹ 3,65,828,57
