Area Problems The length of a rectangular plot is 20 metres more than its breadth. If the cost of fencing the plot @ 26.50 per metre is Rs. 5300, what is the length of the plot in metres? Data inadequate 120 40 None of these Data inadequate 120 40 None of these ANSWER EXPLANATION DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP Let breadth = x metres. Then, length = (x + 20) metres. Perimeter = ❨ 5300 ❩ m = 200 m. 26.50 ∴ 2[(x + 20) + x] = 200 ⟹ 2x + 20 = 100 ⟹ 2x = 80 ⟹ x = 40. Hence, length = x + 20 = 60 m
Area Problems A rectangular lawn 55m by 35m has two roads each 4m wide running in the middle of it. One parallel to the length and the other parallel to breadth. The cost of graveling the roads at 75 paise per sq meter is rs.258 rs.58 rs.358 rs.158 rs.258 rs.58 rs.358 rs.158 ANSWER EXPLANATION DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP area of cross roads = (55 x 4) + (35 x 4)- (4 x 4) = 344sq m cost of graveling = 344 x (75/100) = Rs. 258
