A rectangular grass field is 75 m * 55 m, it has a path of 2.5 m wide all round it on the outside. Find the area of the path and the cost of constructing it at Rs.2 per sq m?

A. 675, Rs.1350
B. 575, Rs.1350
C. 1350, Rs.675
D. None

Area = (l + b +2d) 2d
= (75 + 55 +2.5 * 2) 2*2.5 => 675
675 * 2 = Rs.1350
