Question

A garden is √30 m long and √8 m wide. The garden is covered in grass except for a small rectangular pond which is √2 m long and √6 m wide.Express the area of the pond as a percentage of the area of the garden.​

Answer 1

Answer:

22.36%

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of garden = √30 x √8 = √240

Area of pond = √2 x √6 = √12

Percentage of pond = (Area of pond / Area of garden) x 100

= (√12 / √240) x 100 = √0.05 x 100 = 22.36%
