Q.

The breadth of a rectangular field is 60% of its length. If the perimeter of the field is 800 m.What is the area of the field?

View Answer

Correct choice: B

Explanation:

Let length = x meters, then breadth = 0.6x Given that perimeter = 800 meters => 2[ x + 0.6x] = 800 => x = 250 m Length = 250m and breadth = 0.6 x 250 = 150m Area = 250 x 150 = 37500 sq.m
