Question

A PARK IS 60M LONG AND 50 M WIDE .TWO CROSS ROADS 8M WIDE RUNS INSIDE THE PARK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PARK FIND THE AREA OF THE PARK . CLASS 7 TH

Answer 1

Answer:

Area of the park = (60 x 40) = 2400m2

Area of the lawn = 2109m2  

Area of the crossroads = (2400 - 2109) = 291m2  

Let the width of the road be x metres. Then,

60x+40x−X2=291  

x2−100x+291=0  

 (x - 97)(x - 3) = 0

  x = 3.
