Correct Answer: Rs. 345.15
Explanation:
area of the plot = 120m x 60m = 7200 sq.m
area of plot excluding gravel = 117m x 57m = 6669 sq.m
area of gravel = 7200 sq.m - 6669 sq.m = 531 sq.m
cost of building it = 531 sq.m x 65 ps = 34515 ps
In Rs. = 34515/100 = Rs. 345.15.
Correct Answer: 16:5
Explanation:
Area of a square SxS = 1024 => S = 32 cm
Length of the rectangle = 32x2 cm = 64 cm
Breadth of the rectangle = 32 - 12 = 20 cm
Required ratio = 64 : 20 = 16 : 5
Correct Answer: 15:16
Explanation:
Correct Answer: 60m
Explanation:
let breadth = x then length = x+20
perimeter = 5300/26.50 = 200m
2(x+20+x) =200 => 4x+40 =200
x = 40 and length = 40+20 = 60m
Correct Answer: 20000
Explanation:
speed of the man = 4 x (5/18) m/sec = 10/9 m/sec
time taken = 3 x 60 sec = 180 sec
length of diagonal = speed x time = (10/9) x 180 = 200m
Area of the field = (1/2) x (dioagonal)²
= (1/2) x 200 x 200 sq.m = 20000sq.m
Correct Answer: 52
Correct Answer: 153600
Explanation:
Let length = 3x metres and breadth = 2x metres.
Then, 2(3x + 2x) = 1600 or x = 160.
Length = 480 m and Breadth = 320 m.Area = (480 x 320) sq.m = 153600 sq.m
Correct Answer: 13
Explanation:
Area = = sq.cm
side of a rhombus = (12)² + (5)² = 169 => AB = 13cm
Correct Answer: 31.68kmph
Explanation:
In this type of question, we will first calculate the distance covered in given time.
Distance covered will be : Number of revolutions x Circumference
So we will be having distance and time, from which we can calculate the speed.
Radius of wheel = 70 / 2 = 35 cm
Distance covered in 40 revolutions will be = 88 m
Distance covered in 1 sec =
Correct Answer: 18
Explanation:
a = = 90 sq.cm
b = 2a =
h= 18cm
