A rectangular field is 20 m long and 14 m wide. There is a path of equal width all around it, having an area of 111 sq m. Find the width of the path.

Explanation

To find the width of the path around the rectangular field, we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Define the dimensions of the field and the path
Let the width of the path be \( x \) meters. The dimensions of the rectangular field are:
- Length = 20 m
- Width = 14 m

With the path of width \( x \) around the field, the new dimensions of the larger rectangle (field + path) will be:
