Question

A pool measuring 8 meters by 24 meters is surrounded by a path of uniform

width, as shown in the figure. If the area of the pool and the path combined is
960 square meters, what is the width of the path?​

Answer 1

8 meters

Explanation:

8 × 24 = 192, 960 - 192 = 728.

The width of the path will be 8, and the length of the path will be 91, but since the question is just talking about the path's width, then the answer is 8 meters.
