Options- A. 12 m2
- B. 15 m2
- C. 20 m 2
- D. 4?5 m2
- Correct Answer
- 12 m2
ExplanationOther side = ?5 2 - 42
= ? 9
=3 m
So The area of the rectangular field = 4 x 3
= 12 m2 - 1. The length and breadth of a rectangular piece of land are in the ratio of 5:3, the owner spent Rs.3000 for surrounding it from all the sides at Rs.7.50 per meter. The different between its length and breadth is?

Correct Answer: 50 m
Explanation:
Let Length = 5y meters and breadth = 3y meters.
Then, perimeter = 2 x (5y + 3y ) m = 16y meters ...(i)
But perimeter = Total Cost / Rate = 3000 / 7.50 m = 400 m ...(ii)
from eqs. (i) and (ii)
16y = 400
? y = 25
? Length - Breadth = (5 x 25 - 3 x 25 ) m
= 2 x 25 m
= 50 m
Correct Answer: 625 ? sq m
Explanation:
Required area = ?r2 = ? x 25 x 25
= 625? sq m.
Correct Answer: 6 cm
Explanation:
Radius = Diameter/2
? Diameter = 2 x Radius
= 2 x 3
= 6 cm
Correct Answer: 10%
Explanation:
According to the formula,
? Percentage increase in sides = 10%
? Percentage increase diagonals = 10%
Correct Answer: 5%
Explanation:
According to the formula,
Percentage increase in diagonals = 5%
Correct Answer: 91/11 %
Explanation:
Let base = b and altitude = h
Then, Area = b x h
But New base = 110b / 100 = 11b / 10
Let New altitude = H
Then,
Decrese = (h - 10h /11 )
= h / 11
? Required decrease per cent
= (h/11) x (1 / h ) x 100 %
= 91/11 %
Correct Answer: None of these
Explanation:
Let breadth = b meters.
Then, length = 4b/3 meters.
? b x 4b/3 = 300
? b2 = 300 x 3/4
? b2 = 225
? b = 15
Hence, required difference = [(Length) - (Breadth) ]
= 4b/3 - b
= b/3
= 15/3 m
= 5 m
Correct Answer: Rs. 900
Explanation:
Area = 1440 / 160 hectares
= 9 hectares
= 90000 m2
? One side = ?90000 m
= 300 m
So perimeter = 4 x 300 m
= 1200 m
? Cost of fencing = Rs (1200 x 75) / 100
= Rs. 900
Correct Answer: 100 meters
Explanation:
Let breadth = b meters.
then, length = 3b/2 meters
? b x 3b/2 = 2/3 X 10000
? b2 = (4 x 10000)/9
? b = ( 2 X 100)/3 m
? Length = (3/2) x (2/3) x 100 m
= 100 m
Correct Answer: 360 m
Explanation:
Let length of rectangular field = 5y,
so width = 4y.
From question
5y - 4y = 20m
? x = 20m
? Length = (5 x 20)m = 100 m
Breadth = (4 x 20) m = 80 m
? Perimeter = 2 (100 + 80 ) m = 360 m
