Let the width of the room be x membersThen, its area = (4x) m2Area of each new square room = (2x)m2Let the side of each new room = y metersThen, y2 = 2xClearly, 2x is a complete square when x=2? y2 = 4? y = 2 m .
Length = (40 x 10 ) dm = 400 dm.Breadth = (15 x 10 ) dm = 150 dm.Area of veranda = (400 x 150 ) dm2Area of one stone = (6 x 5 ) dm2? Required number of stones = (400 x 150) /(6 x 5) = 2000
