Detailed Solution

Given a 3 m wide path runs outside and around a rectangular park of length 125 m and breadth 65 m.
Area of park without the path is,
=125 m×65 m =8,125  m 2
Length of park after the path is included
=125+3+3m
= 131 m
Breadth of park after the path is included
= 65 + 3 + 3
= 71 m
Area of park after the path is included,
=131 m×71 m =9,301  m 2
Area of the path = area of park with path - area of park earlier
=9,301  m 2 8,125  m 2 =1,176  m 2
Area of the path is 1176 m 2 .
Therefore, option 1 is correct.
