A rectangular area of 16 meters by 12 meters, is surrounded by a road 3 meters wide. The area of the road is : Correct Answer 204

the length of the rectangular area plus the road on each end is = 16 + (3*2) = 22 meters. the width of the rectangular area plus the road on each end is = 12 + (3*2) = 18 meters. the area of the rectangular area plus the width of the road is (22 * 18) = 396 square meters. the area of the rectangular area by itself is (16 * 12) = 192 square meters. the area of the road is the total area minus the rectangular area which is equal to (396 - 192) = 204 square meters. ans: 204 sq meters

A passage is given with 5 questions following it. Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.
I had seen this road many years ago when my parents moved to Mundakotukurussi, our ancestral village. However, in those early years, I hadn't begun exploring the countryside. I stored the unknown road in my head under 'One Day I Will'. Ten years ago, when I recovered from a herniated disc, it was to discover that I had a useless left leg. Though I managed to lose the limp, I hated not being able to stride around as I used to. I needed a challenge to tell myself that I wasn't going to buckle to a creature called sciatica. Thus the 'One Day I Will' arrived. "Where does the road by the medical shop lead to?" I asked my parents while visiting them next. "Chalavara," they said. "It's not an easy road to walk on," my father added. "There are too many ups and downs." Chalavara was a superior grade of a village as compared to Mundakotukurussi, with a high school, a fine library, ATMs and several shops. But it also has two approach roads. The one I had chosen was a narrow back road used by the locals and that settled it for me. I needed to know for myself I could walk a road that wasn't going to be easy. And the next day, I would get up and walk that road again.
