I'm a dumbass and I need your help to study math
Would you help me?
What sort of math are we talking about?
>>357514
A rectangular garden 50m long by 34m wide is surrounded by a uniform sand path. Calculate the width of this path if you know that your area is 540m ^ 2

Geometry and ecuations
>>357579
let x be the width of the path
can you make an expression for the area of the garden+path?
from that, you can subtract the area of the garden to get only the path area

Somewhat simpler: draw a sketch and subdivide the sand path of width x into 4 squares in the corners + 4 rectangles. The sum of the areas must be equal to the path area of 540m^2.
Note that this results in a quadratic expression in x that must be solved as usual with the quadratic formula for example.
The result x is an integer.
