- Question
The perimeters of two squares are 40cm and 32 cm. Find the perimeter of a third square whose area is equal to the difference of the areas of the two squares.
Options- A. 12
- B. 24
- C. 36
- D. 48
- Correct Answer
- 24
Explanationside of first square = 40/4 =10cm
side of second square = 32/4 = 8cm
area of third squre = 10² - 8² = 36 sq cm
side of third square = = 6 cm
required perimeter = 6*4 = 24cm - 1. Two concentric circles form a ring. The inner and outer circumference of the ring are 352/7 m and 528/7m respectively.Find the width of the ring.

Correct Answer: 4
Explanation:
let the inner and outer radii be r and R meters
then,
= 352/7
=> r = (352/7) * (7/22) * (1/2) = 8m
= 528/7
=> R= (528/7) * (7/22) * (1/2)= 12m
width of the ring = R-r = 12-8 = 4m
Correct Answer: 9 cm
Correct Answer: 720
Explanation:
Let the number of bricks be 'N'
10 x 4/100 x 6 x 90/100 = 25/100 x 15/100 x 8/100 x N
10 x 4 x 6 x 90 = 15 x 2 x N => N = 720.
Correct Answer: 117
Explanation:
Length = 6 m 24 cm = 624 cm
Width = 4 m 32 cm = 432 cm
HCF of 624 and 432 = 48
Number of square tiles required = (624 x 432)/(48 x 48) = 13 x 9 = 117.
Correct Answer: 6 m
Explanation:
The edge of the new cube is = => a = 6 m.
Correct Answer: 616
Explanation:
area of the field grazed = (22/7) * 14 * 14 = 616 sq feet
Correct Answer: 22m/s
Explanation:
let each wheel make x revolutions per sec. Then
distance moved by smaller wheel in 3 revolutions
=
speed of smaller wheel = m/s = 22m/s
Correct Answer: 6:5
Explanation:
Required ratio =
Correct Answer: 38.57 cm
Explanation:
We know that perimeter of rectangle = 2(l+b) = 2(8+7)= 30cm
Given perimeter of square is twice the perimeter of rectangle = 2(30) = 60cm
Therefore, side of the square is = 1/4 x 60 = 15cm
Circumference of the required semicircle =
=
= 23.57 + 15 = 38.57cm.
Correct Answer: 288 sq.cm
Explanation:
Length of the thread is 36 cms.
length wise twice breath wise once then totally thrice.
so 36/3 = 12.
so length is 12 x 2 = 24 cms
breath is 12 cms
Area of the book = length x breath = 24 x 12 = 288 sq.cm
