    Solution:

    We have been given,
    Radius (r) = 7cm.
    Radius (R) = 35cm.
    Using the given information,
    The radius of bigger circle (with the path) is a circular grass lawn + Path running around the grass lawn.
    Substituting the values,
    ⇒35+7=42 m
    Area of the path =Area of bigger circle -Area of smaller circle
    ⇒π(R)2-π(r)2
    Substituting the values,
    ⇒π(42)2-π(35)2
    ⇒227×42+3542-35
    ⇒22×77
    ⇒1694 m2 Thus, the area is 1694 m2.
    Hence, option 3 is correct.
