1. The length of a rectangular plot is 20 meters more than its breadth . If the cost of fencing the plot at TK. 26.50 per meter is TK. 5300, what is the length of the plot in meters?
- A. 6
- B. 6
- C. 6
- D. 6
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Let length of plot = L meters, then breadth = L - 20 meters
and perimeter = 2[L + L - 20] = [4L - 40] meters
[4L - 40] * 26.50 = 5300
[4L - 40] = 5300 / 26.50 = 200
4L = 240
L = 240/4 = 60 meters.
and perimeter = 2[L + L - 20] = [4L - 40] meters
[4L - 40] * 26.50 = 5300
[4L - 40] = 5300 / 26.50 = 200
4L = 240
L = 240/4 = 60 meters.
