In the figure above, a circular swimming pool (the unshaded area) is surrounded by a circular walkway (the shaded area). Both the circular swimming pool and the entire circular region consisting of the swimming pool and the walkway have the center 0. If the radius of the swimming pool is 10 meters and the width of the walkway is 5 meters, how many square meters greater than the surface area of the swimming pool is the area of the walkway?

A. \(25\pi\)
B. \(50\pi\)
C. \(100\pi\)
D. \(125\pi\)
E. \(225\pi\)

Area of swimming pool (Including walkway) \(= π*15^2\)
Area of swimming pool \(= π*10^2\)

Area of walkway \(= π*15^2 - π*10^2 = 125π\)

How many square meters greater than the surface area of the swimming pool is the area of the walkway?
\(= 125π - 100π =25π\), Answer must be (A)
