  • Question
  • The area of a rectangle is thrice that of square. Length of the rectangle is 40 cm and the breadth of the rectangle is ( 3 / 2 ) times that of the side of the square. The side of the square in cm is?


  • Options
  • A. 15
  • B. 20
  • C. 30
  • D. 60

  • Correct Answer
  • 20 

    Explanation

    Let the side of the square = y cm
    Then, breadth of the rectangle = 3y/2 cm

    ? Area of rectangle = (40 x 3y/2) cm2
    = 60y cm2

    ? 60y = 3y2
    ? y = 20

    Hence, the side of the square = 20 cm
