"Asim is going to cover the path with paving.Each paving stone is a square of side 30 cm.Each paving stone costs £2.50. How may paving stones will it take to cover the path and how much will they cost Asim to buy?

The diagram shows a rectangular garden path

The length is 630 cm

The width is 120cm"

Dimensions of the rectangular garden path  = 630 × 120 cm

Area of the garden path = Length × Width

Area = 630 × 120  = 75,600 cm²

Each square paving stone has each side = 30 cm

Area of each paving stone = 30 × 30 = 900 cm²

The number of stones it will take to cover the path = $\frac{75,600}{900}$

                                                                                     = 84 stones.

Cost of each paving stones = £2.50

Cost of 84 paving stones = 84 × 2.50

                                          = £210

Asim will need 84 stones to cover the path and it will cost £210.
