A rectangular park $60 m$ long and $30 m$ wide has two concrete crossroads running in the middle of the park and rest of the park has been used as a lawn. The area of the lawn is $1200$ $m^{2}$ . What is the total area of the cross road?

Solution

Given that:
Area of lawn $= 1200 m^{2}$
Area of rectangular park $= 60 \times 30 \Rightarrow 1800 m^{2}$

Now,
Area of rectangular park $=$ Area of lawn $+$ Area of cross road
Area of cross road $= 1800 - 1200 \Rightarrow 600 m^{2} .$
Hence,
Total area of cross road $= 600 m^{2} .$

A rectangular park 60m long and 30m wide has two concrete crossroads running in the middle of the park and rest of the park has been used as a lawn. The area of the lawn is 1200 m2. What is the total area of the cross road?

Given that:Area of lawn =1200 m2Area of rectangular park =60×30⇒1800 m2Now,Area of rectangular park = Area of lawn + Area of cross roadArea of cross road =1800−1200⇒600 m2.Hence, Total area of cross road =600 m2.
