Convert all into cm:

5m = 500 cm

2m = 200 cm

Area of the whole carpet = 500 x 200 = 100 000 cm²

Find Length and breadth of the blue portion:

Length = 500 - 25 - 25 = 450 cm

Breadth = 200 - 25 - 25 = 150 cm

Find area of the blue portion:

Area = Length x Breadth

Area = 450 x 150 = 67500 cm²

Find the area of the red portion:

Area = 100 000 - 67500 = 32500 cm²

Ratio of the red portion to blue portion:

Red : Blue = 32500 : 67500 = 13 : 27
