Let length = L and breadth = BLet , New breadth = ZThen, New length = ( 160 / 100) L.= 8L / 5? 8L / 5 x Z = LBor Z = 5B/8Decrease in breadth = (B-5B/8)= 3B/8? Decrease in percent = (3B/8 x1/B ) x 100 %= 371/2%
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 .
The man takes 3600 s for 14.4 km The man will take 88 s for 14.4 x (88/3600) = 352/1000 km = 352 m Now, circumference of circular field = 352 m ? 2?r = 352 m2 x (22/7) x r = 352 ? r = 56 m Therefore, area of the field = ?r2= (22/7) x 56 x 56 = 8 x 22 x 56 m2= 9856 sq m.
