The area of the path would be 231.25 squared meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the path as 45m (the field's area), then add 2.5m to all of the sides. You'll get 47.5m on all sides. Then you do 47.5² to get 2256.25 squared meters. After that, you'll remove the area of the squared field. To do this, do 45m². By doing this, you'll get 2025 squared meters. Lastly, to finish up the question, do 2256.25 - 2025. This would get you 31.25 squared meters, the answer.
Okay so. 2/5=24/60 (multiply 2/5 by 12) 2/3=40/60 (multiply 2/3 by 20) 1/4=15/60 (multiply 1/4 by 15) Then, Add 24/60 with 40/60 which is 64/60 after you get that you subtract by 15/60 and you get 49/60. Hope this helps!^^
