  • Question
  • The area of rectangle is 1.8 times the area of a square. The length of the rectangle is 5 times the breadth. The side of the square is 20 cm. What is the perimeter of the rectangle?


  • Options
  • A. 145 cm
  • B. 144 cm
  • C. 133 cm
  • D. 135 cm

  • Correct Answer
  • 144 cm 

    Explanation

    Area of square = (Side)2 = 202
    = 400 sq cm

    ? Area of rectangle
    = 1.8 x 400 = 720 sq cm

    Let length and breadth of rectangle be 5k and k respectively.
    Then, according to the question,
    5k x k = 720
    ? 5k2 = 720
    ? k2 = 720/5 = 144
    ? k = ?144 = 12 cm

    Perimeter of rectangle = 2(5k + k) = 12k
    = 12 x12 = 144 cm
