Area of the Path Surrounding a Circular Garden

A circular garden has a radius of 6 meters. A path that is 2 meters wide surrounds the garden. What is the area of the path alone?

To find the area of the path, you need to calculate the area of the larger circle (garden plus path) and subtract the area of the circular garden.

Use the formula for the area of a circle: $$A = \pi r^2$$, where $r$ is the radius of the circle.
