Area Problems
The length and breadth of a square are increased by 40% and 30% respectively. The area of a resulting rectangle exceeds the area of the square by?
Let the side of the square = 100 m So area of square = 100 x 100 = 10000.New length = 140 m, New breadth = 130 mIncrease in area = [(140 x 130) - (100 x 100)] m2= 8200 m2? Required increase percent = (8200/ 10000) x 100 % = 82%
Area to the rectangular field = 12375/15 = 825 sq mAccording to the question, (L x B) = 825 [L = length and B = breadth]? L x 25 = 825 ? L = 825/25 = 33 m
According to the question,l/[2(l + b)] = 5/18? 10l + 10b = 18l = 10b? l/b = 10/8 = 5/4? l : b = 5 : 4Hence, ratio of length and breadth of a rectangle is 5 : 4
