The length of a plot is four times its breath. A playground measuring 1200 square meters occupies one third of the total area of a plot . what is the length of the plot in meters?

• A. None of these
• B. 20
• C. 60
• D. 30

Answer: (A)

Area of the plot = (3 x 1200) m2= 3600 m2Let breadth = y metersThen Length = 4y meters,Now area = 4y x y = 3600 m2? y2 = 900 m2? y = 30 m? Length of plot = 4y m= (4 x 30) m=120 m
